Can you help us?
We are working with researchers at the Open University, in partnership with Milton Keynes City Council, Milton Keynes Development Partnership and The Hague University of Applied Sciences in The Netherlands to explore how ‘age-friendly’ residents consider Milton Keynes to be, as described by the World Health Organisation (2007) initiative for developing age-friendly cities and communities.
If you are resident in Milton Keynes (aged 18-64 or 65 years and over), you are invited to participate in a survey, anonymously, to tell us about your experiences of living, working and taking part in leisure activities in Milton Keynes. You are welcome to encourage your family and friends to also complete the survey.
The data collected will assist the research team, Milton Keynes City Council, MK Development Partnership and Age UK Milton Keynes with their future plans and age-friendly strategic objectives across the area and communities, contributing to the Milton Keynes 2050 City Plan and the priorities of Age UK Milton Keynes. This is the first step in the ambition of making Milton Keynes an age-friendly/dementia-friendly city for all. To find out more information and access the online survey click the link here. If you prefer to complete the survey on paper, please contact us.
