We need connection whatever our age – especially if we live alone or further away from family. Age UK's Silver Line Helpline gives anyone aged 55 or over the opportunity to exchange a friendly word, access support, or enjoy a long enriching conversation.
I used The Silver Line every night for about three weeks, and it really kept me going. They’re lovely, I’ve not spoken to anybody that I haven’t felt has been listening or engaging. I can put my hand on my heart and say I don’t think I’d be here without them.
