Recognise that health is more than medicine alone

While placing a strong value on good GP, primary care and hospital services, the older people we talk to share a broad understanding about what is needed to age well at home.

Accessible local transport, a secure income and involvement in vibrant community and voluntary groups are all identified as essential to good health and well-being at home.  

• To ensure ageing well at home is a real option we must protect the State Pension and related supports; retain opportunities to participate with community groups and further develop accessible local transport.
