Delivered by: Age UK
Last updated: 14/08/2025

Age UK's Advice Line is a free, confidential national telephone service for older people, as well as their families, friends, carers and professionals. Our team will give you information that's reliable and up to date and help you access the advice you need.

  • Do you know what benefits to claim and how to claim them?
  • Worried that you can’t afford to retire?
  • Anxious about a planned hospital stay and how to cope when you leave?
  • Need advice on choosing the right care home? 

Free, independent advice 365 days a year. Lines are open 8am-7pm every day of the year, including all bank holidays, because we understand that it's important that we’re here when people need us the most.
