Later Life

The group aims to reduce the number of excess winter deaths in the North East by increasing the uptake of the seasonal flu vaccination and benefits to reduce fuel poverty.

It is working with the Economy, Culture and Environment Group to commission research on fuel poverty.

The group will consider ways of boosting take-up of the flu immunisation by those over 85 years old as well as carers

It will also explore transport issues for older people and provide support to both the regional implementation of the national dementia strategy and development of an end of life charter.
