State of Healthy Ageing in Y&H - 2023

The population is ageing with the number of people aged 65 and over in Y&H predicted to grow by around third between 2020 and 2040. This will pose new challenges for the health and care system and so it is important to understand the specific needs of the older population to enable appropriate actions to improve health as people age, reduce inequalities and to make Y&H a great place in which to grow old. This report provides a comprehensive overview of healthy ageing, how we are doing in Y&H and provides examples of great work already taking place in our region.
