The Silver Line Helpline, run by Age UK, is free service for people aged over 55 who would benefit from a friendly chat. They provide conversation 24 hours a day, especially for those who may be experiencing feelings of loneliness and isolation.
They do not offer any counselling or specialist mental health support via The Silver Line. Please also note that The Silver Line does not offer any kind of crisis or emergency service and callers who require this kind of support should contact either 999 or 111.
You can contact The Silver Line on 0800 4 70 80 90
