Ageing Well Torbay are working with people over 50 and organisations across Torbay to create Torbay Over 50’s Assembly – or TOFA for short. This assembly will enable anyone over the age of 50 to discuss what’s important to them, and share those views with peers and friends from around the bay.
The assembly has been a key element of Ageing Well Torbay’s initial bid to the Big Lottery, and is therefore an important feature and legacy to be left behind by the programme, ensuring people in later life will have a true platform and power within Torbay, that has been negotiated with local statutory services.
TOFA will be a huge opportunity to become involved in local affairs – the Assembly will consist of Assembly Members, Assembly Representatives and Action Group Members.
If you’d like to find out more about Torbay Over 50’s Assembly, including more about these three roles, exactly what the assembly will do and how it’ll function, visit the TOFA page on Ageing Well Torbay’s website: Click here.
If you’re interested in joining the assembly, and wish to express your interest, call 01803 212638, or email ageingwell@torbaycdt.org.uk with your name and contact details (phone number and/or email address at least)
