Policy

Older people should be supported to make informed choices about maintaining and improving their health and independence and should have access to services and activities to enable them to do this.

Opportunities for healthy living should be increased and should have barriers removed‚ particularly for disadvantaged older people.

For more details on our healthy ageing policy position download from the bottom of this page the health and health care chapter of the Age Agenda 2008 report.
