Age-Friendly Melville The City of Melville continues to build on its previous achievements working towards a vision of an Age-Friendly Melville to advance the aspirations and wellbeing of our ageing community. We are heading towards a time where there will more ageing adults in Australia than there will be children. We continue to engage with our older residents, and based on what you tell us, we continually look to improve our strategies to reflect your aspirations for the future. We will also continue to maintain our participation in the World Health Organisation’s Global Age-Friendly Communities Network and work with the state government and other local governments in Western Australia to progress our vision of an age-friendly City. The City has developed strategies and actions outlined in our document ‘Age- Friendly Melville Plan 2017-2021’ which targets the key areas identified by older people for improvements that promote active ageing. The priority areas identified include housing, transport, respect and inclusion as well as social participation. This resource is regularly updated and improved with the latest information about services and activities that will support your independence and participation in the community. We hope that this booklet assists you to live well in Age-Friendly Melville.
