SOOM - Somerset Older Opinions Matter!
|
If you are over 60 and living in Somerset or North Somerset we need you to join our new ‘Somerset Older Opinions Matter’ (SOOM) survey group!
Age UK Somerset exists to make life better for older people in Somerset and North Somerset. We have set up SOOM, Somerset Older Opinions Matter, to help us learn what the issues of greatest importance are for local older people and what needs to be done or offered to make later life better.
We want to make sure local older people's voices are heard.
Those that agree to take part are asked to complete small anonymous surveys once a month. The answers given will not only help to shape the services that our charity offers in the future but we hope to empower local older people further by using their collective responses to speak up on their behalf to other local organisations and service providers to make later life better across Somerset and North Somerset. The results of the surveys will be published on this page.
Of course SOOM will work the best when we have a large number of people taking part so please join the survey panel! Your opinion is valuable to us!
