Hi Jane - I'm Clare Batty, National Development Officer with the Beth Johnson Foundation, and welcome your interest in the work of the Consortium. We are at an early stage of development and will be posting more information as it comes onstream.
It would be interesting to hear how you see the neighbourhood planning processes informing age-friendly approaches.
Through the new Localism Act 2011 the government is providing the opportunity for local people to make decisions about the places they live and work in.
Neighbourhood plans are part of this and Central Milton Keynes is one of only 8 in the country that also includes local businesses in the area. As a member of the CMK Alliance Business Forum and CEO of Age UK MK, I would be very interested in knowing more about this work.
