Age UK Leicestershire and Rutland promotes the wellbeing of older people across the area and provides a wide range of vital support services to meet the needs of the older community. A £608,000 loan from Unity first provided loan finance to purchase premises for a charity shop that provides a sustainable source of fundraising and affordable goods for the local community. It was also used to refinance an existing facility which was used to purchase two head office buildings.
