Later Life Provider Network

Norfolk & Waveney has a growing, ageing population and society must adjust to promote a healthy and active later life and support those who need additional support to live well. The Later Life Provider Network is a partnership of local organisations who predominantly provide services to people aged 50+, supported by academic research/best practice institutions and lived experience groups. Through the network, we aim to promote the needs and experiences of later life, collaborate with local leaders and influencers to shape and co-design future services in Norfolk & Waveney. We will share best practice from our own services, and promote opportunities for research and engagement to improve quality standards and outcomes. We will facilitate wider engagement with lived experience groups and organisations in the community who can solicit the views and needs of local people in the design of local services. We will represent the challenges of later life and provide solutions to how they can be effectively supported, and their impact to quality of life or health equality.
