It's a worrying time for charities right now. Across the country, many organisations are being forced to close their doors, reduce services, or make staff redundant. Recent examples include Age Scotland, Reach Volunteering and Papyrus.
If you or someone you love benefits from the support, services, activities, or opportunities that charities provide, please consider giving back if you're able to. Even a small regular donation can make a real difference.
Better still, consider supporting your local community charities. Smaller charities are often at the heart of their communities, helping people every day, but they rely heavily on local support to keep going.
Let's not wait until vital services disappear before asking what more we could have done. If you're in a position to help, why not set up a regular donation today and make a difference you can see right here in your own community.
If your company runs a Corporate Giving Scheme and would like to partner with us, we’d be delighted to discuss opportunities to work together. While we don’t

We are celebrating an absolutely incredible milestone — 30 YEARS of volunteering! 🎉👏💐
A huge and heartfelt thank you to Betty for three decades of kindness, commitment and community spirit. 💛
Over the years, Betty has been involved in so many different parts of our organisation — from helping with the Call Line 📞, supporting our Lunch Club 🍽️, and being part of our Thursday Night Social Group 🎶, to lending a hand at events and activities throughout the year. 🎉
And if 30 years of volunteering wasn’t impressive enough, Betty was also named Age Scotland's Volunteer of the Year in 2020! 🏆🌟 A truly well-deserved recognition of the incredible contribution she has made to our community.
Thirty years represents countless hours, conversations, laughs, cups of tea, events and memories — and we’re incredibly lucky to have had Betty as such a valued part of our volunteer family. 🥰
Thank you, Betty, for everything you have given over the past 30 years. Your dedication and kindness have made a real difference to so many people. ❤️
Here’s to 30 amazing years and all the memories you have helped us create🥳🥂
