New Zealanders are living longer than ever before. That is an opportunity for Aotearoa. With the right support, older people can continue to contribute and to live healthy and connected lives - supporting whānau, strengthening communities, and remaining active and involved for longer.
The Aotearoa New Zealand National Forum for the Decade of Healthy Ageing would like to ask people over the age of 55 how well they think they are – or will be – supported to age well in their home/community.
In this survey, which should take you about 10 minutes, we’re interested in how confident you feel about ageing where you live, and what helps or gets in the way. This includes things like housing, health, transport, work, and community or social connection.

- The first part provides a snapshot of how confident New Zealanders currently feel about ageing in their community.
- The second part is optional and explores in more detail what could make the biggest difference.
There are no right or wrong answers. Your responses will help identify what’s working well, and where practical improvements could better support people to age well in their communities.
