The local independent charity, in partnership with Gloucestershire Older Persons Association, is inviting individuals aged 50 and over to join a dedicated panel to shape decisions affecting their lives and communities. Jane Shute, Age UK Gloucestershire’s head of fundraising and communications, said: "Our aim is to ensure everyone ages well their way in Gloucestershire. "By listening to older people and amplifying their voices, we can help influence policymakers as well as services so that they truly reflect the needs and aspirations of our local older residents." Participation in the Voice of Older People panel is free and individuals can engage as much or as little as they wish. To learn more or to join the panel, visit: ageuk.org.uk/gloucestershire/voop
