We want your help to create an Age-friendly Knox. The key to creating an age-friendly community is engaging with older people in the area to establish priorities for the project, and for them to lead and contribute important initiatives and actions.
As part of our engagement with the community, in mid 2020 we released a comprehensive Age-friendly Knox survey which was sent to over 3000 older Knox residents via mail and made available online to the rest of the community more broadly. The purpose of this survey was to find out how healthy and active our older community is, and, what they think Council and the community should prioritise to create an age friendly community.
Over the five year cycle, there will be many opportunities for community participation. A number of formal and informal consultation and collaboration opportunities will be promoted throughout. In addition, you can contact us anytime to get involved or contribute through our consultation website.
