Service Providers Forum – Terms of Reference Purpose The ________ Age Friendly Alliance is a strategic partnership for the county of ________ that brings together the statutory, private, voluntary and community sectors; so that different initiatives and services support each other, working together to more effectively meet the needs and aspirations of older people in ________ through the development of the Age Friendly Strategy. The role of the Alliance is to develop and implement a ________ Age Friendly Strategy. Its members include the heads of all key groups and organisations who share a common commitment to make ________ a great county for all its citizens to grow old in. They have been selected on the basis of having the influence and resources to be able to develop and deliver an Age-Friendly County Strategy. This will be the first time that such a wide range of partners will have worked together for the benefit of older adults in ________. It is hoped that the richness of their experiences will bring a fresh approach to shaping the Strategy and Action Plan. The benefits that this Alliance can bring will be to: • Bring together partners who do not normally work together to achieve more than they can achieve alone for the older people of ________. • Coordinate and simplify existing partnerships and strategies where necessary. • Enable fresh opportunities to be identified Context: Age Friendly Ireland believes that when the needs and wishes of older people are known, much can be done to significantly improve services and supports without substantial additional cost. Local authorities and providers from all sectors can forge new partnerships which will align and mutually reinforce their services, identify and fill gaps, and minimise duplication. 186
Appendices: Chapter 4 Terms of Reference In carrying out its work as a Forum representing service providers to older people, the Forum will aim to: Share information about service provision and plan service provision in a more linked-up, integrated way in order to optimise the use of resources The Forum will ensure that service roll-out and, in particular, any new service developments are fully informed of the current range of services delivered, to ensure that, over time, service gaps are filled and duplication of service is eradicated. This ultimately will generate efficiencies, improve the speed and quality of delivery but most importantly promote the quality of life for those receiving the services Provide up to date information to older people in an accessible format The Forum will ensure that information on services, policies and activities provided to older people by the County Alliance and other agencies is accurate and up to date; Engage directly with older people The Forum will engage in a structured way with older people to listen to their opinions, concerns and needs and use this information in the development and evaluation of their services to ensure that the needs of older people are met; and, Involve service providers in influencing policy The Forum will gather the opinions, concerns and needs of service providers in order to influence the policy decisions of the Alliance and policy-making at national level. Encourage Regional Support The Forum will meet Fora from other regions to share experiences about services which are more responsive, caring, professional and accessible and how cross-sector collaboration can enhance services and community life.
