Thank you for giving the time, energy and openness in completing our very first partnership engagement survey. Your contribution is so important to us.

Each day Age UK York works to support older people and those around them here across York. A vital part of our story in making this possible is thanks to the support and collaboration with our partners, just like yourself. 

We ever value your experiences, ideas, hopes and challenges for Age UK York. We have created this survey to give you a voice and for us to hear from you as to what you think about Age UK York and to help together shape our future as we create our new strategy and crucially how we can continue to best support older people in York, now and into the future.

We have designed the survey to ask these very questions and find the answers together and we hope you find it engaging. We too have completed surveys in the past and acknowledge that this one may take a little longer and the value comes from your thoughts and ideas. It will though be time well spent and your views so valuable to what we are working to create together. Any and all comments welcome and your views will directly feed into our work and will be acted on.

Thank you for having your say and for all your continued support.

Best wishes,

Howard and Simon

Howard Widdall (Chair of Trustees)
Simon Holmes (Chief Executive Officer)
