What is an Age Friendly Community Audit?
An Age Friendly Community considers the needs of older people and creates a barrier-free environment so that persons of all ages and abilities can participate fully. If an area is comfortable and accessible for older people, it will also be comfortable for others.
The key elements of an Age Friendly Community will provide a sense of amenity, safety and wellbeing for patrons that supports social inclusion.
Our local and state governments have Ageing plans or strategies which can be a good source of information and support to backup any requests to your local precinct that are outside the immediate control of a specific individual or business (eg parking and public toilets).
This tool allows you to identify simple changes that will make your local community more Age Friendly or to highlight spaces that are doing a great job of welcoming older people.
