The Older People’s Network will aim to identify training needs of groups by holding joint workshops, share information and best practice and improve communication and engagement with older people’s groups.

A steering group of the partner organisations wish to invite representatives from all older peoples’ groups to an event to discuss the next steps on how the network will best serve the interests of older people in your area.

The event will be held on November 19 in Lough Moss Leisure Centre, Carryduff from 10am to 12noon. To register your group/book a place for this event contact [email protected] or 028 9268 0852 (Lisburn and Colin groups).
