We want to make Redcar and Cleveland a great place to live for people of all ages-now and in the future.
As part of our work to become a more age-friendly community, Redcar and Cleveland Council, together with a wide range of local partner organisations is asking residents to share their thoughts, experiences, and areas for improvement via a survey.
This is an opportunity for residents to tell us what is important to them and what could be improved to support good health, wellbeing, and independence as people age.
Residents have the chance to have their say on themes such as health and social care, community facilities, outdoor spaces, transport, cost of living, employment and volunteer opportunities, community safety, housing options, accessibility, social participation, and community life.
Please can you promote and encourage survey completion through your networks?
