Hourglass Scotland

February 5th 2021

It is a Scotland-wide Community Hub to provide information, advice and support to anyone concerned about the harm, abuse or exploitation of older people. Based in Fife, but offering services across the whole of Scotland, we can provide support in a range of areas, from prevention and early intervention, right through to direct support and recovery from abuse. Our Community Hub staff and/or volunteers aim to provide:

Flexible and pragmatic support, advocacy

Follow-up calls to provide ongoing support and regular check-ins

A range of information materials, including our online Knowledge Bank – the UK’s first ever specialist knowledge bank specifically relating to the abuse of older people and safer ageing.
