We are committed to ensuring the decisions that support health and wellbeing for people as they age are informed and influenced by the people who live, work, visit or do business in the region.

That’s why we decided to co-design this action plan with older residents themselves, along with local communities, service providers and other stakeholders.

We know that your participation helps us make better decisions and achieve better outcomes.

This action plan outlines the activities that we, along with our partners, will undertake to begin working towards a more age friendly City. It brings together existing work in positive ageing, as well as providing an age friendly lens to current programs and new projects.

In particular, I would like to thank and acknowledge the time and commitment of our Ageing Well Advisory Committee who were active participants in the conversations and co-design process.
