Age UK (National) Health & Wellbeing Information

Get information on age-related health conditions, tips and advice on staying fit and healthy, as well as information on dealing with health services and leaving hospital.

Your mind matters

It's not just our physical health we need to take care of. Making sure we're feeling mentally and emotionally well is just as important.

Being active

It's a myth that getting older means an end to being active. We can help you to keep moving, whatever your age.

Getting help when ill

Your GP doesn't always need to be your first point of contact when you feel unwell. There are other services that can help.

We offer support through our free advice line on 0800 678 1602. Lines are open 8am-7pm, 365 days a year. We also have specialist advisers at over 120 local Age UKs.
