Older residents in the Murraylands are being invited to complete a survey to help set the priorities for South Australia’s next ageing plan.

SA’s Plan for Ageing Well outlines the state’s vision and priorities that support older people to live happy, connected, and meaningful lives.

The current 2020-25 plan is being reviewed and South Australians aged 50-plus are invited to provide their input to help the government understand how they are experiencing ageing.

The Living and Ageing Well Community Perception Survey explores housing, social connections, community support and transitioning through life changes such as retirement.

Minister for Seniors and Ageing Well Nat Cook said there were many factors that impaced how we age, including "gender, culture, disability and location, with some experiencing ageing better than others".

"This is why we want to hear from South Australians aged 50-plus on what ageing well means to them and what issues they are facing," she said.

Completing the survey would only take a few minutes and would provide essential information to help shape the plan.

"People will contribute to shaping policies that directly affect so many of us, help to identify what’s working well and what needs improvement, and ensure their voice is heard in planning for the future of ageing well in South Australia," she said.

These insights would help ensure that future government policies and initiatives aligned with the needs and aspirations of South Australia’s diverse ageing population.

The survey will close on October 31.
