Age-Friendly City Indicator Pilot Final Report Fishguard and Goodwick, Pembrokeshire, Wales Dr. Alan Hatt Ageing Well in Wales: Age-Friendly City Indicator Pilot Final Report Fishguard and Goodwick, Pembrokeshire, Wales Dr. Alan Hatton-Yeo MBE About Ageing Well in Wales Ageing Well in Wales is a national Programme hosted by the Older People’s Commissioner for Wales. It brings together individuals and communities with public, private and voluntary sectors to develop and promote innovative and practical ways to make Wales a good place to grow older for everyone. The Ageing Well Programme is actively supported by Welsh Government and key national organisations. It has a rapidly growing network of members encompassing diverse organisations and interests across Wales. Strong links are also maintained with partners across Europe, reflecting Wales being awarded the highest three star Reference Site status as part of the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing (EIP-AHA). For more information, email [email protected] or refer to our website, www.ageingwellinwales.com. Acknowledgements Our thanks to the people of Fishguard and Goodwick, for their support and enthusiasm and to Pembrokeshire County Council and Alcohol Concern Cymru who helped to make the pilot possible through their support.

Background information and local context Fishguard and Goodwick is an urban area made up of two connected towns with a population at the 2011 census of 4869 people. It has a high percentage of older people 25.2% of the population being aged 45-64 and 27.9% of the population being 65 and over. Based around a working harbour it is an old town built into a hilly valley. There is a good level of community activity and some interesting intergenerational projects already taking place such as a project where young people are teaching computer skills to older people. The local community had already made a commitment to become age-friendly. At the start of the pilot they were just beginning to develop their ideas and activities in support of this. The community was already actively involved with the national age-friendly community initiative and this was part of a wider commitment made by Pembokeshire County Council, the Local Authority where Fishguard and Goodwick is located. This enabled us to develop a uniquely multi-disciplinary approach to the piloting of the indicators, which was multi-faceted with engagement from local community members to National Government. Wales has made a commitment to become an Age-Friendly Nation and on the 22nd October 2014 launched its national Ageing Well in Wales programme, which has the development of Age-Friendly Communities as a core theme. In support of this every Local Authority in Wales has signed the Dublin Declaration and a Multi- Disciplinary Expert Advisory Group on Age-Friendly Communities has been established. Pembrokeshire have made a strong commitment to the development of age-friendly approaches at all levels of the authority and forged a strong partnership with the pilot to support both the testing stage and also a sustainability plan. 2. Process used for pilot study Key partners The project was supported by the Older People’s Strategy Team for Welsh Government, the National Ageing Well Programme, the Older Peoples Commissioner for Wales, OPAN, the Older People’s Research Network for Wales and Pembrokeshire County Council. This ensured we were able to access all relevant existing data sets and resources to inform the pilot and to connect the pilot to the existing national programme on age-friendly communities. In addition, COPA, the Cymru Older People’s Alliance, which is the representative group for Older People in Wales was engaged both locally and nationally to ensure that the voice of older people shaped our response . Page 1 Locally a community steering group of all relevant organisations in Fishguard and Goodwick was established. The group reviewed the guidance materials and a sub- group designed a questionnaire and consultation process to test their local priorities. Consultation was undertaken across the area and the group has used the findings from the surveys and focus groups to inform our response to the pilot and to develop the local age-friendly implementation plan. A community worker was commissioned to facilitate the local process, and it was essential that this was somebody already working locally who was knowledgeable about the area and also trusted by local people. We are grateful to Alcohol Concern Cymru for seconding this person who has had a pivotal role in the local engagement. This community approach meant we were able to not only engage with local older people and their organisations but also the wider community, particularly youth organisations. Pembrokeshire County Council through its Older People’s Strategy Coordinator actively supported this local approach. In summary the key partners included: All local community organisations in Fishguard and Goodwick Fishguard and Goodwick Age Friendly Steering Group Interested local Voluntary Organisations Cymru Older People’s Alliance (COPA) Older Person’s Strategy Coordinator for Pembrokeshire County Council Ageing Well in Wales Programme Welsh Government Older People’s Strategy Team University of Swansea Age Friendly Communities Wales Expert Advisory Group National Partnership Forum - Ministerial Advisory Group on Ageing Generations Together Cymru Local older people and their organisations have been involved at all stages of the process and took the leadership on the local testing and surveys. Methods used to analyse and collect data At the beginning of the process we were concerned to recognize that in the current climate of austerity it was important to develop an approach that as much as possible integrated into existing data and evidence based approaches. Our concern was to ensure that we developed an efficient ongoing mechanism to demonstrate change and impact that fitted alongside other local and national drivers. This meant we took a pragmatic approach to building our evidence base that reflected existing mechanisms or identified where new policies and processes were under development which we could influence to make our collection of future data more robust. This is expanded on later in this report. Page 2 The one area where we deviated from this was in using a community driven consultation and survey methodology. We saw this as essential as we see the involvement of local people in developing and reviewing actions to improve the age -friendliness of an area as being the core value of such an approach. The summary of this is attached as appendix one. This links with the developing work of the Cymru Older People’s Alliance to draw together the views of local older people and their groups across Wales to give an informed national collective voice to shape national priorities, programmes and evidence collection. In developing our response to the guide and indicators we undertook the following activities: A full review of the guidance materials by our Expert Advisory Group to report back on their findings and also to clarify the indicators that they are already collecting, areas that they saw potential to strengthen or wished to endorse from their particular expert perspectives and to gain feedback as to how helpful the guide would be for them in their own developmental work. The following existing data sets were identified as key to underpinning our statistical approach to the guide: Welsh index on Multiple Deprivation (WIMD) http://gov.wales/statistics-and-research/welsh-index-multiple-deprivation/?lang=en This enables us to look at data in local areas against a number of key headings that are particularly useful in considering issues around equity: Income Employment Health Education Access to Services Community safety Physical Environment Housing The Well-being Monitor http://gov.wales/statistics-and-research/older-peoples-wellbeing-monitor-wales/?lang=en Data Unit Wales http://www.dataunitwales.gov.uk/data Data Unit Wales has a number of tools enabling the collection of data on a Super Local Output Area basis that typically have a population of approximately 1,500 people. This enables cross community comparison and is particularly relevant when used with the WIMD to explore equity issues.

Pembrokeshire Local Authority, which is the administrative area for Fishguard and Goodwick, is currently developing its Ageing Well Implementation Plan. The Strategy Coordinator reviewed the guide to identify the evidence they were collecting to underpin this plan against the proposed indicators. This is reported on in section 3. Collaboration with the Department of Business and Enterprise who are conducting an enquiry into Economic Activity and volunteering by people aged 50 plus to inform data on equity issues which we see as a priority. COPA have reviewed the guidance specifically from an older person’s perspective. Wales is also part of the European Age-Friendly Environment Innovet programme. As part of our contribution, and building on our experiences from the pilot, COPA will be developing a practical guide for the co-production of Age-Friendly Environments for Older People as a model for other European partners.

  • Annual Report 2008 - 2009
    This watermark does not appear in the registered version - http://www.clicktoconvert.com North Pembrokeshire Transport Forum Fforwm Trafnidiaeth Gogledd Penfro ANNUAL REPORT 2008 - 2009 Introduction The Forum works for the provision of an effective integrated transport system in the North Pembrokeshire area, promotes the benefits of public transport and works towards greater use of public transport systems. Our activities involve conducting research and gathering data with regard to all aspects of transport; providing an advice and assistance service to the travelling public; and actively promoting our aims to and through governmental, quasi-governmental and advisory bodies. As we reported last year, bus services in the area continue to provide an extremely good quality ride, and the remarkable growth in innovative community transport services continues apace. The excellence of the cycling and walking facilities in our area also remains a source of great pride. Passenger services on West Wales trains continue to improve, and we are delighted to report that additional services to Fishguard are among the top rail priorities of the forthcoming Regional Transport Plan. The maintenance and development of the South West Wales Community Rail Partnership is also assured, as is the development of the Fishguard and Goodwick Rail Station as a bus-rail interchange. A well integrated transport system for North Pembrokeshire now seems more than just a pipe dream! The Forum values the positive relationships that we have developed with our individual, family and corporate members, as well as with transport providers, a wide variety of groups with a transport interest, and elected representatives and officers in all levels of government.
