On Street <strong>Age</strong> <strong>Friendly</strong> Questionnaire<br />

How good is your town for older people?<br />

Hello I am with the <strong>Age</strong> <strong>Friendly</strong> Programme. This programme wants to help improve the quality<br />

of life for people living in towns in Ireland. As part of this we need people to tell us what it is like<br />

to live in and use this town. I have a short questionnaire and I wonder if you would help me by<br />

spending ten minutes telling me your views on the town.<br />

You don’t have to answer all the questions and you may stop at any time. Any information we<br />

collect will be treated confidentially.<br />

Would you be willing to take part?<br />

Yes<br />

No<br />

1. Are you male or female?<br />

Male<br />

(planner complete)<br />

Female<br />

2. Which of the following statements most applies to you?<br />

I live in the town.<br />

I visit and use the services in the town regularly, at least once a month.<br />

I rarely visit the town, or this is my first time here.<br />

***FINISH AND THANK YOU FOR TAKING PART***<br />

3. It is important for us to understand the issues for people of different ages, so I<br />

hope you don’t mind me asking which of the following groups includes your age?<br />

55 to 59 60 to 64 65 to 74 75 to 84 85 +<br />
