The former PE teacher began volunteering for Age UK two decades ago after the death of husband Leslie and also took on work with the NHS and a nursing home. Almost 20 years on she just works for Age UK - driving herself out at least three days a week to visit and help lonely housebound elderly people. She also helps out her neighbours in Clitheroe, Lancs. - feeding their cats and picking fruit for them if they are away. Kay said: "When I began working for Age UK they had started a befriending service and I've been with them ever since.
