Background
The Scottish Government is responsible for many issues that affect older people. Ministers want all the policies to take account of older people. They are developing a Framework – this will remind all the teams across the Scottish Government about what is important for older people.
We want your help
Several organisations are gathering views from people they know. Outside the Box is asking people we know, especially people who may not be part of other organisations that represent older people
If you have already been asked to send in your views, that’s ok – if you want, you can give them several times to make sure your views get across.
What to do
We’re hoping that people will have a conversation with people they know – your friends, people in a group you go to such as a hobby group or at a coffee morning, or people who live nearby.
This pack has a list of topics and questions to get you started.
- We expect most people will talk mostly about some topics and not have much to say on the others.
- You might want to talk about one topic on one day and then talk about something else on another day.
- You can talk about other things you want to tell the Scottish Government
- Whatever you do or discuss is fine.
