Hourglass (Formally Action on Elder Abuse (AEA)) is a non-profit organisation that operates across the four nations of the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland. We are dedicated to calling time on the abuse, harm and exploitation of older people and are driven by our core mission to establish safer ageing for all.

We aim to prevent the abuse of older people by raising awareness; encouraging education; promoting research; and collecting and disseminating information. We support older victim-survivors of abuse and their loved ones through our free 24/7 helpline, instant messaging services and direct intervention through our community response programme. 

We provide up-to-date information through our monthly newsletter, run webinars and conferences on issues surrounding the abuse of older people, produce resources for practitioners and the public and provide training and education to organisations that deal with older people.

Our vision is a society which values older people and one in which they and other adults can live free from abuse perpetrated by those in whom they have an expectation of trust. Where such abuse occurs, we seek an environment in which it can be identified and addressed. Get in touch with us today to find out how you can help us reach this goal: www.wearehourglass.org
