I’M PLEASED to announce that Sunday, September 27, to Sunday, October 4, will be Age Cymru’s second Age Positive Week.
Age Positive Week is our national celebration of all that is positive about ageing and the contribution older people make to our communities.
We believe this celebration is vital to counter the negative stereotyping of older people and the ageism that we all too often see, hear or experience in society.
Being ‘age positive’ is a vital part of Age Cymru’s vision to create an age friendly Wales.
Age Cymru wants the Welsh public to get involved in Age Positive Week by organising their own celebrations.
From organising tea parties to day trips, concerts to dance classes, school assemblies to forum meetings, there are plenty of ways you can get involved in Age Cymru’s Age Positive Week.
If you would like an information pack about Age Cymru’s Age Positive Week, please contact Age Cymru on 029 2043 1555 or email age positive@agecymru.org.uk.

Age Cymru is Wales’s largest and leading charity for older people.
It works nationally and locally through its network of local charity partners to make Wales a place where older people can flourish.
