Many older people want to be involved in aspects of community life such as volunteering, becoming politically active or participating in local groups and clubs. Supporting older people to remain employed or to find new employment improves their economic security and independence and benefits the wider economy through capitalising on their skills and experience.
What sort of projects might be relevant to this domain?
- Support for voluntary and community groups and groups that represent older people
- Training and support to enable older people to volunteer and/or access employment
- Funding opportunities for community groups and activities
