York Older People’s
Assembly (YOPA)
YOPA members are all
over 50 and member organisations represent the main groups working
with older people in York.
Their aim is to raise awareness of policy issues affecting our lives,
to be well represented on the boards of the Council, Hospital Trust
and Primary Care Trust through our Champions, to sit on policy-making
committees, and to speak out in the press and media on local and
national issues of concern to older people. They debate issues at
public meetings, communicate through our quarterly newsletter,
organise information fairs, and co-ordinate the York 50+ Festival in
which over 7,000 people participate annually.
