Empower local communities. Enrich lives. Support your local Abbeyfield
Abbeyfield is more than a national organisation; it's a network of local communities, each enhancing the lives of older people in local towns and villages. Founded by grassroots initiatives since 1956, our network of almost 100 independent Abbeyfield Members Societies across England and Wales rely on the generosity of their communities to thrive.
Your support empowers Abbeyfield Societies to provide older people with:
- Safe and secure housing and care services
- Companionship and social connection
- Activities and events to enrich their lives
- Enable strong connections to their local communities
How you can help
There are many ways to make a difference to enhance the quality of life for older people and help us continue to create communities that keep people connected in later life. Support for example could be through a donation, by leaving a gift in your will, or organising a fundraising event. You could even get creative and work with your nearby Abbeyfield on fundraising ideas.
