A small organisation like Christians on Ageing cannot provide guidance and advice on more than a selected range of topics, usually related to current issues about ageing or those which have a direct connection with our membership.
The list of other sites listed here is neither comprehensive (the subject is too big for that) nor recommended by Christians on Ageing but you might find it a useful starter in your search for more information. No responsibility can be taken for the content of other sites although every care has been taken to review them on a regular basis and to ensure that nothing is said or suggested which might cause offence or be inappropriate, especially in matters of Christian belief and practice.
It starts with the main Christian Churches and includes some of the voluntary organisations and government agencies which have a national presence.
We hope to build a bigger picture with your help. Let us know of sites which you have found helpful and we will consider adding them to this list.
