Building Age-Friendly Neighbourhoods in Manchester

Ambition for Ageing has found out what makes an age-friendly neighbourhood in Greater Manchester from over 3,000 older people. The findings have been released as a report, Building Age-Friendly Neighbourhoods in Greater Manchester and two briefings:                        

• What Makes an Age-friendly Neighbourhood – a general briefing, exploring what older people have told AA about what makes neighbourhoods age-friendly.
• How We Build Age-Friendly Neighbourhoods – a practitioners briefing showcasing age-friendly activities taking place across GM and exploring successes and challenges encountered by the Ambition for Ageing programme.

This report and the accompanying briefings will be of interest to anyone involved in planning age-friendly neighbourhoods and places.
