As part of International Day of Older Persons 2026, we were proud to bring together older residents and partners to share their experiences, celebrate local communities, and explore what helps people age well in Salford.
This video captures some of the conversations, stories and reflections shared by older residents that will help shape future Age Well activity as we continue working towards a city where everyone can age well, stay connected and live independently.
Thank you to everyone who took part.

What does an age-friendly Salford look like?

This afternoon, older residents and partners are joining interactive workshops to discuss everything from mobility and independence to improving information, community support and imagining Age Friendly Salford in 2036.

The conversations taking place today will help shape future services, activities and opportunities for older people across the city.

Because the best solutions are created with older people, not just for them. 💬

Another successful Tech and Tea course completed at Sacred Trinity Church! ☕📱

Over the last four weeks, participants have built their digital skills, from learning device basics to downloading apps. More importantly, they’ve made new connections and supported each other along the way.

One participant told us they wouldn’t normally attend something like this alone but were glad they did because they met people they otherwise wouldn’t have known. It was fantastic to see the group grow in confidence and help one another throughout the course. 💙
