"You're too old to be gay." It's a phrase no one should ever hear.

On BBC Radio 4, our Engagement Officer, Sam, spoke about the importance of creating safe spaces where LGBTQ+ older people feel seen, heard and able to be themselves.

For many, their identity has been a closely guarded secret for decades. No one should have to hide who they are because of their age.

Our Rainbow Call Companion service helps LGBTQ+ people aged 75 and over build meaningful connections through regular phone calls with a volunteer who listens without judgement.

For 10 years, players of People’s Postcode Lottery have supported our work to reduce loneliness and isolation among older people, raising an incredible Ā£4.8 million.

To mark this special milestone, cartoonist Kipper Williams created this brilliant illustration, which we presented to Lindsay Coulton at People’s Postcode Lottery as a heartfelt thank you. Kipper also created cartoons for Re-engage many years ago, so it was wonderful to work with him again.

Thank you to Kipper and to every player of People’s Postcode Lottery. Your support helps us bring friendship, connection and joy to more older people across the UK 🧔
