Ballinger Trust: Older People

The Trust supports a range of charitable organisations supporting older people (over 55) in the region, in particular:

• local community groups, with priority given to those based in the more disadvantaged areas, including rural or coastal isolation
• dementia support and advice
• support of other serious health inequalities experienced by older people such as (but not limited to) sight loss, hearing loss, cancer support
• family carers

We are specifically interested in supporting those organisations who are based in the heart of the community they serve, have a real understanding of the needs of their local people and who are focused on developing long-term relationships within their community.
