The document sets out a draft strategy for the health and wellbeing of older people for the next 10 years. Its vision is that older people live well, age well, and have a respectful end of life in age-friendly communities.
The forum is another way for people to provide feedback, besides the traditional formal submissions on the draft strategy.
All forum comments will count towards the consultation outcome.
Health ageing involves people of all ages, and if you know anyone who would be interested in commenting online, please tell them about the forum and how to access it at:

The consultation closes on September 7.
