Older People in Wales

Age Friendly Wales: Our Strategy for an Ageing Society

Age Friendly Wales: Our Strategy for an Ageing Society, sets out the action we will take to ensure Wales can reap the benefits of growing numbers of older people in our communities. This, in turn, will enable us to better support people living in challenging circumstances.

To reflect the multi-dimensional nature of ageing, we have worked across government departments to address the range of factors that influence how we age – from our health and transport systems to the way we socialise, work and care for others.
