April 2025 marks 60 years since Re-engage – initially known as ‘Contact’, then 'Contact the Elderly’, before undergoing a re-brand in 2019 - began bringing companionship, friendship and connection into the lives of thousands of older people and volunteers. Since then, there have been millions of minutes of conversation, thousands of firm friendships formed, countless cups of tea and coffee consumed, slices of cake enjoyed and much more, all with the aim of tackling loneliness for older people.
