Charities have been invited to apply to a £250,000 fund for projects to encourage more older people to volunteer.

The Centre for Ageing Better will award funding from the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport of between £40,000 and £60,000 to up to five projects that pilot, develop and share new approaches to age-friendly and inclusive volunteering.

The deadline is midday on 10 December, with the funding being awarded in March 2019 and spent over the following 12 months.
