Our population is ageing and the number of people over 65 years of age will increase by 50% from 2011 to 2026. Coffs Harbour City Council is committed to developing a Positive Ageing Strategy. The Strategy will highlight Council's commitment to supporting positive ageing and provide direction for how Council will respond to the opportunities and challenges of an ageing population.
The 'Positive Ageing in the Coffs Harbour LGA Survey' has now closed. The results of this survey have been included in the draft Ageing strategy.
A draft strategy is expected to be tabled with Council in first half of 2020.
