Friends of the Elderly Ireland

Your Kindness, Ends Loneliness

Across Ireland, more than 157,000 elderly people over the age of 65 live alone.  We’ve seen a big increase in demand for our crucial services – from older neighbours all over Ireland who are lonely and who need simple practical supports and companionship.

And of course, this is happening at a time when, because of Covid-19, we are struggling to raise the funds to support these services. When many older people are still living in fear despite the welcome roll-out of the vaccines.

Your gift will help us make more phone calls, send more birthday cards, deliver more food and care hampers.

Thank you for being a friend of the elderly.
