This strategy was developed by the Cork Age Friendly City Alliance, an interagency partnership comprising representatives from the public, not-for-profit and community organisations, together working to proactively enhance the liveability of Cork City for older citizens, and lead by Cork City Council.
The thematic actions have focused on Community Support and Health Services; Communication and Information; Transportation; Outdoor Spaces and Buildings; Civic Participation and Employment; Respect and Social Inclusion; Social Participation and Housing. Cork Chamber has been actively engaged across all thematic areas with the main focus being in communications and information provision towards promoting the Age Friendly Business programme. This programme recognises the efforts and improvements made by businesses to provide more Age Friendly services and products. It is a recognition programme, is low to zero cost, and invites business of all sizes and types to participate and be listed as an Age Friendly Business. Participating businesses have experienced increased footfall and higher turnover as they reach out to a growing demographic estimated to be worth over €10 billion. To get involved in this programme please contact Michelle by email or call 021 4530132.
