Survey from Age Friendly Dorset
Dorset is on a journey to become an Age-friendly county. Imagine a Dorset where growing older means living better, and where every generation, disability and background enjoys life as we age.
Published: 20 October 2025
The first step will be to survey people from across Dorset, and understand what life is like for older people in the community.
The survey is for all adults 50 years and older. It covers 8 key areas of life, from health and housing to social life and employment. It will provide us with a well-rounded picture of what life is like for people, as they grow older in Dorset.
