Our mission is: ‘to help people to maintain independence and dignity in their own homes and communities, particularly in later life’.
We provide a range of services to help people in need who might otherwise feel lonely and isolated. We work with other charities and organisations, local authorities and the NHS, meeting needs in communities throughout England, Scotland and Wales. We are a major service provider giving practical help, particularly for older people, to enable choice, independence and dignity so people can enjoy an improved quality of life - all with the help of over 90,000 volunteers.
Encouraging the elderly and housebound to drink more water is vital in helping to improving the health and well-being of those we care for and is of great relevance to our work.
