The AgeWell Team is dedicated to supporting people as they age, improving well-being and health and creating nurturing communities for older adults.

AgeWell engages older adults – Peer Companions called AgeWells – to conduct home visits to older people primarily living alone. These peer companions provide social engagement to improve well-being.
In addition, if required they may act as a link to the health care system and community services to promote health and build stronger connections between older adults and what services are available to them in their community.

Third Age is a national voluntary organisation celebrating the third age in life when people may no longer be in pain employment, but can remain healthy, fulfilled and continue to contribute to society. The longer people are encouraged to remain in this life stage, the better for older people themselves, their families, communities and society as a whole.

The AgeWell programme is amongst the first to be rolled out in Europe and is in partnership with AgeWell Global and is supported by the HSE. Together we are certain to make a difference in the lives of our ageing population in Ireland. AgeWell looks forward to providing a quality service to clients through their participation in the AgeWell programme.
