Become a part of The Silver Line story and support older people by offering them friendship, conversation and connection.
Work for us
The Silver Line relies on a team of passionate and motivated staff members to ensure we can support and uplift as many older people as possible.
Our staff work together – to keep our lines open 24/7, support our volunteers, and safeguard our callers.
You don’t need to have experience working in the charity sector to join the team. While we value transferrable skills, what really matters is that you have a strong desire to take on new challenges to help create a positive impact on people’s lives.
The Silver Line Helpline became part of Age UK in 2021 so all Silver Line staff members are employed by Age UK and The Silver Line Helpline is operated directly by Age UK.
