Campaign
We want Scotland to be the best place in the world to grow older so we work with older people to campaign and influence decision-makers on the issues that matter most to them.
Find out about our current campaigns and how to get involved below.
Older People's Champions
We believe that every one of Scotland’s 32 local authorities should appoint a Councillor as an Older People’s Champion. We are working with the Scottish Older People’s Assembly (SOPA) on a joint campaign to make this happen.
Check in, Cash out
Every year hundreds of millions of pounds in vital financial support goes unclaimed by older people in Scotland. Our "Check in, Cash out" campaign aims to raise awareness and increase take-up to help older people live well.
Reinstating a Minister for Older People
Age Scotland and a range of partners are calling for the Scottish Government to reinstate a named Minister for Older People. We hope that with our combined voices, the First Minister thinks again and brings back the role.
Commissioner for Older People
Along with a number of other organisations, Age Scotland is campaigning for a Commissioner for Older People for Scotland.
