Age UK London campaigns on behalf of older Londoners. We campaign to make London an age-friendly city. That means accessible and affordable transport, more public toilets, fighting pensioner poverty and digital exclusion.
‼️#WorldToiletDay is TOMORROW!

🚽Tomorrow, the London Loo Alliance will be touring the transport network to inspect some of TfL’s public toilet facilities to see which stations are ‘on a roll’ and which stations are ‘loos’ing out.

✅Follow @londonlooalliance.bsky.social for more details!

Great @bbclondon.bsky.social piece on bank branch closures in London. Closures are leading to financial exclusion for many older Londoners and there are far too few banking hubs being set up. 🧵(1st video of 2)

Yesterday we met the wonderful lady who we are delighted to say is our campaigner and supporter Gwynneth who last week celebrated her 100th birthday. We talked about her campaigning and how changes to her life set her off on the campaign road. Congratulations Gwynneth an inspiration!🥳

Our new report Access Still Denied? shows that more local authorities in the capital have made it possible for residents to access essential services without having to apply online. However, significant barriers still remain for those who are not online. bit.ly/AccessStillD... #AccessStillDenied

Thanks to Laura at @inclusionlondon.bsky.social for raising the needs of older people at the recent #AssemblyHousing meeting. Laura noted how accessible housing is an issue affecting the whole of society, how we are all ageing and likely to need an accessible home at some time in our lives🏠
