A recent sounding board survey asked for information on the location and accessibility of various key services; sought opinions about changes in elderly people’s accessibility to services over the last 5 years; and enquired about the availability of housing suitable for older residents.

In total there were 214 responses from Parish Councillors and 30 from other Local Authority Councillors although it should be noted that the other Local Authority responses provided information on a total of 93 parishes.
