An elderly neighbour (even older than me!) has near to gale force winds rattling through her house at the moment.
Are there any charities or services for the elderly that might help at minimal cost?

You could contact your local council and she maybe entitled to a grant.
I hope that will be of help.

Try asking Age UK?

Thank you both for your suggestions. I’ll follow up on both.
