The ISCP is working together with Age Action to find the best way to represent older people in 2025 and the future.
This survey is organised by Mosaic Social Impact on behalf of Irish Senior Citizens Parliament and Age Action.
We have posted paper copies of the survey to our Membership Groups, please circulate to as many of your groups members as possible and to ALL interested parties. The survey is available to both members and non-members.
The greater number of replies – the more voices and opinions heard.
