Age Friendly York

We want older residents to help shape where they live by working with local groups, businesses and the council to identify and make changes to their physical and social environments.

Age Friendly York will:

• enable people to live healthy and active lives
• encourage communities to treat people with respect, regardless of their age

We will ensure decisions are resident focused by:

• providing the opportunity to feedback at any point, through all aspects covered by Age Friendly York - there is no wrong time to have a view
• to ensure you have access to what the key findings are from the consultations and how these directly inform the action plan
• to ensure information is available about what has been achieved so far

• you live in York and are an older person or have an interest in ensuring the best experience for people growing old in York
• you work for an organisation that meets the interest of older people in York
• you are part of a volunteer group that engages with older people
