02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
Glasgow Action for Pensioners aims to improve the quality of life for older people in Glasgow by addressing issues such as poverty, isolation, and access to essential services. We provide practical support, advocacy, and information to pensioners, ensuring they are aware of their rights and entitlements. Our services include offering advice on financial support, and connecting individuals to health and social care services.
