Hello,

Diverse Cymru is a leading Equalities organisation and we have been commissioned by the Welsh Government to conduct independent research into crimes against older people (anyone aged 50+). We will be gathering the views from members of the public as well as experts in the field.

The project aims to increase understanding and awareness of crimes against older people.

We are keen to hear the views, experiences, and ideas of older people across Wales and of the practitioners who work with them.

We would be grateful if you could promote the engagement events and survey below to older people in Wales and any related organisations.

We would also like to hear your own views and experiences and solutions.

  • Llandrindod – 22nd February 11am-2pm at the Llandrindod Well Metropole Ballroom
  • Wrexham – 24th February11am-2pm at the Erddig Room, Glyndwr University

Lunch will be provided. Travel and access costs can be reimbursed. Spaces are limited, and will be allocated on a first come first come basis.

Alternatively, if you can’t make the above dates or if you have more to tell us, then you can participate by telephone or Skype interview.

We’d be more than happy to chat with you and answer any questions that you may have.
