How the innocent big knit helps Age Action

The innocent big knit puts these little hats on bottles to raise money for Age Action.

Age Action is Ireland's leading advocacy organisation for older people and ageing.

Age Action leads the way in informing and influencing policy as well as providing practical programmes to support older people and empower them to live independently.

The charity offers care and repair services, carrying out minor repairs for older people free of charge.

Age Action also offers information services around issues facing older people.

The team also helps with computer training to combat digital exclusion. Over the last 13 years, innocent has supported their work and raised €275,000 for them so far.
