At Home Instead Leeds Central, we are thrilled to announce that we have officially become a Leeds Age Friendly Ambassador! This exciting recognition reinforces our ongoing commitment to making Leeds a better, safer, and more inclusive place for older adults to live, thrive, and age with dignity.

What Does It Mean to Be a Leeds Age Friendly Ambassador?

Being a Leeds Age Friendly Ambassador means we are now part of a growing network of local businesses and organisations that actively support Leeds’ vision to become the best city to grow old in. As ambassadors, we commit to:

• Creating age-friendly environments within our services and workspaces

• Promoting independence, dignity, and respect for older adults

• Supporting inclusive practices for people living with dementia and other age-related challenges

• Raising awareness about the needs of the ageing population in Leeds

This aligns perfectly with our mission at Home Instead: to provide high-quality, person-centred home care services that empower older adults to remain independent in the comfort of their own homes.

Why Age-Friendly Matters

Leeds is home to a growing population of people aged 50 and over. Ensuring that local services, businesses, and communities are age-inclusive is not just ethical — it’s essential.

From public transport and accessibility to communication and care, age-friendly practices help reduce social isolation, prevent loneliness, and improve the quality of life for everyone. As a home care provider in Leeds, we know how vital it is to be more than just care providers — we are also companions, listeners, and advocates for a more compassionate society.

How We’re Making a Difference

At Home Instead Leeds Central, we’ve already been putting age-friendly values into action:

• Offering tailored home care services that respect each client’s lifestyle and choices

• Providing dementia care, companionship, personal care, and support with everyday living

• Training our Care Professionals to communicate clearly, compassionately, and respectfully

• Hosting and supporting local community events that bring older people together

Becoming a Leeds Age Friendly Ambassador is a natural next step in our journey, and we’re honoured to carry this title.
