DESCRIPTION
Faith in Older People (FiOP) is a Scottish National Charity based in Edinburgh. Its focus is on ’spirituality and ageing’. We define spirituality as ‘that which gives meaning and purpose to our lives’.
We believe that spiritual care is much broader than any one faith or religion, and is of relevance to everyone.
Why we exist...
We educate, encourage and support volunteers, health and social care workers, members of faith communities and other agencies to increase their understanding of spiritual care and issues around ageing.
Our work
We are an educational, research and awareness raising organisation working across three broad themes:
- Dementia Care and Faith Communities
- Mental Health, Older People and Faith Communities
- Spiritual Care Education
