£1.1 million investment to champion older people as Wales becomes Age Friendly

Actions the Welsh Government will take to champion older people and challenge the way we think about ageing have been published by Julie Morgan, the Deputy Minister for Social Services.

Written in partnership with older people and their representatives, the delivery plan sets out the steps Welsh Government will take to achieve the vision set out in Age Friendly Wales: Our Strategy for an Ageing Society. 

£1.1 million is being made available to local authorities to support their work to become age friendly and ensure older people are involved in the design and planning of local services.
