I’D LIKE to invite your readers to take part in this year’s Age Positive Week.

Age Positive Week is Age Cymru’s celebration of ageing and older people’s contribution to our communities.

It’s also part of Age Cymru’s commitment to creating an age-friendly Wales where older people are valued and live fulfilling lives.

Age Positive Week takes place from Sunday September 25, to Sunday October 2, and coincides with the United Nations’ International Day of Older Persons on October 1.

You can take part in Age Positive Week by organising any event that involves older people such as a tea party, a day trip, a concert, a dance class or even a school assembly.

If you would like an information pack about Age Positive Week, please contact Age Cymru on 029 2043 1555 or email agepositive@agecymru.org.uk.
