The Week of Ageing Well and International Day of Older Persons (IDOP) are fast approaching. South Australia’s Week of Ageing Well is held from 1-7 October each year to coincide with IDOP which is on 1 October.

The theme for this year’s International Day of Older Persons is “Older Persons Driving Local and Global Action: Our Aspirations, Our Well-Being, and Our Rights,” which places older people at the heart of public dialogue and policy efforts.

Have your say on ageing well in South Australia by taking this short survey, to inform the next state ageing well plan.

Encourage others to get involved by downloading the flyer (with QR code to the survey) and other resources and share with your friends and community.

Thank you to those who have already completed the survey. Responses so far highlight that ageing well means something different to each of us - but there are common themes emerging.
