About me:
UBS exists to alleviate the problems faced by the most disadvantaged and isolated older people, especially those living alone in inner-city areas. We provide to those in need lifelong friendship and financial support. UBS supports people without distinction of class, creed, nationality or background.Who I'd like to meet:
UBS is a small charity (Registered number: 220978) that is undergoing a period of huge development. 2007 is our 150th anniversary. It is such a long time since a group of philanthropists, which included Charles Dickens, founded UBS. We have marked our anniversary by launching our new strategic plan. Our most important objective is to combat isolation and loneliness among older people. Studies by Help the Aged have shown that at least 1.6 million older people in the UK do not have contact with anyone on a weekly basis. At present we are providing lifelong support to more than 1,100 older people. We know there are many more needing our help and it has never been as essential as it is now for us to attract support from new donors. We would be so grateful for any help you might give please? Do please visit our website at www.u-b-s.org.uk to find out more about our work and to make a much-needed donation. Thank you!Details
