  • Towards an Age-Friendly Wythenshawe – a Partnership Approach to Developing the Wythenshawe Age-Friendly Charter
    Case Study 63 Towards an Age-friendly Wythenshawe – a partnership approach to developing the Wythenshawe Age-friendly Charter This paper is based on a presentation given at the Age-friendly Manchester launch in October 2012. Reproduced for the Housing Learning & Improvement Network by kind permission of Willow Park and Parkway Green Housing Trusts February 2013 © Housing Learning & Improvement Network www.housinglin.org.uk Introduction Work to develop the Age-friendly Wythenshawe Charter was led by the two major Housing Providers in Wythenshawe, Parkway Green and Willow Park. It was prompted by the development of their Ageing Strategies and informed by conversations with tenants. It has now seen a wide range of new partners sign up and commit to embracing the principles of age-friendliness. Manchester’s Valuing Older People (VOP) programme was established in 2003. Since then, the scope and stature of the programme has seen Manchester gain national and international recognition as a leading age-friendly Local Authority. This culminated with the city becoming the first UK member of the World Health Organisation’s Global Network of Age-friendly cities in 2010, and achieving WHO Age-friendly City status in 2012. “Manchester has established itself at an international level as a leading authority in developing one of the most comprehensive strategic programmes on ageing.” John Beard, Director of the Department of Ageing and the Life Course, World Health Organisation Background Life expectancy is increasing at the rate of over two years per decade, and the percentage of the population over 65 years is projected to double over the next forty years.
