Later Life Ambitions

From CEO Wakefield

I am writing to invite you to take part in a survey that will help us understand our members’ views on local government and the local services in your area.

Ahead of the local elections that will be held in some councils across England on Tuesday 3rd May, NARPO has been working closely with our partners in Later Life Ambitions to understand the local services and issues that matter most to our members.

These elections are politically important and will have an impact on the many services that local councils run on a day to day basis. Although local elections aren’t taking place in all local authorities, this is still an opportunity to tell us about the issues affecting your local area.

The survey consists of a brief series of questions about the local government services in your area, and it can be completed in only a few minutes. We can assure that your evidence will be dealt with in confidence, and your details will be anonymised.

Please find the survey online here.
