Positive Ageing Strategy 2016-2025

Helping people age well

Our Positive Ageing Strategy aims to assist people in understanding the opportunities and actions they can take for ageing well.

The strategy outlines our leadership role in assisting residents to live fulfilled lives regardless of age, health or life stage.

We're in the position to capture research and local experience of ageing and using this to lead and build a response to ageing well.

Key focus areas

The Positive Ageing Strategy prioritises eight key focus areas.

  1. Friends, connections and a welcoming community.
  2. Active - socially, mentally, physically.
  3. Learning and sharing knowledge.
  4. Getting around.
  5. Informed and having a say.
  6. Feeling safe.
  7. Housing, employment and financial security.
  8. Health and support services when required.
