Gear services more effectively to older people’s needs.
“Invest in 3rd sector. Activities to keep older healthy people healthy and stimulated.”
“To have a discrete focus on older people and older peoples issues in health and social care planning. To continue to work with health professionals and support them to improve access and develop their workforce to meet the needs of older people.”
“More activities for older people to help get them out of the house. Transport to help those unable to come out unaided. Unkempt local areas and mend seating near Black Elders , as there is nowhere to sit. Mental & physical health are both important for community health.”
Adapt spaces for people with disabilities and wheelchair users.
“More accessible city for those who are wheelchair users – particularly city centre
and better access/experience of visiting
the shops.”
“Housing not suitable for disabled scooters.”
“Very few disabled parking. More
accessible shops for disabled locals. Shop inspection by council to make sure enough space for disabled.”
“Door to door local transportation for disabled people.”
Look again at provision in services and beyond for children and adults with learning disabilities and autism.
“Support for groups and activities for learning disabled people – crucial and affirming”
“Trust especially with special needs children is difficult to build. Services not set up to build these relationships. Mental health of the young person and the family suffers immensely.”
“Review support services for people with autism and their families.”
Support women and new mothers more effectively.
“Need face to face support for young people/post natal mums. Listening to first-time mums and taking on board their concerns and anxieties.”
