Age Cymru Gwent provides support to people over 50.
We are the largest voluntary sector organisation providing support to people over 50 in Blaenau Gwent, Caerphilly, Monmouthshire, Newport and Torfaen.
Our principle objective is to promote the independence of older people, thereby improving the quality of their lives.
We believe that older people should be respected and valued as individuals in terms of their dignity, status, personal autonomy, diversity of needs, aspirations and expectations.
Their potential to contribute to the community must be recognised by their having the maximum freedom of choice and control over their own lives.
During the year ending 31st March 2021, we had contact with over 50,000 older people in Gwent. As part of the delivery of support services, we carry out welfare benefit checks and support service users in completing claims paperwork.
During the year, over £5 million in annualised benefits was successfully claimed.
We believe:
• that older people are all individuals of equal worth irrespective of their gender, marital status, race, ethnic origin, colour, nationality, national origin, disability, sexual orientation, religion or age
• that all older people should be treated with dignity and respect
Age Cymru Gwent strives to combat discrimination in all forms.
