Creating an age friendly business programme

An age friendly business or service provides accessible, inclusive, and respectful customer experiences, offering products and services that meet the needs of people of all ages, life stages, and abilities.

Resources 

The Gore District have established New Zealand’s first Age Friendly Business programme, that recognises businesses and organisations in their area that are aspiring to be an age friendly business.

As a part of their programme, Gore's District's Ready for Living team developed resources to help other regions and communities set up their own age friendly business initiatives. These resources were created in collaboration with local businesses and older community members, facilitated by Partners in Change, and supported by the Office for Seniors.
