The Older People\u2019s Commissioner <\/strong><\/p>\n

for Wales launches <\/strong><\/p>\n

Facebook page! <\/strong><\/p>\n

Here at the Commissioner\u2019s office, we celebrate the fact that we are living longer, healthier lives and we understand the importance of adding life to years, not just years to life.<\/p>\n

Hearing from older people about the things that matter to them most is vital in helping to guide and shape our work and we want to use Facebook as a platform to have an open and honest conversation with older people and stakeholders throughout Wales.<\/p>\n

We want to hear from older people about what is working well, and what needs to be improved. We want older people to share their opinions about what it\u2019s like growing older in Wales today and hear their ideas on the best ways to deliver change because by working together, we can help to make Wales the best place in the world to grow older.<\/p>\n
