Luminate survey about creative work for older adults in Scotland

Luminate, Scotland’s creative ageing organisation, are looking for anyone who undertakes creative activities with and for older people to respond to their new survey.

Their work is about ensuring all older people in Scotland can enjoy high quality arts and creative activities, whatever their background and circumstances, and wherever they live.  They want to hear about people’s experiences to help them plan their work for the rest of this year and beyond.

Anyone taking part can win a £50 shopping voucher, and the survey itself should take only about 10 minutes to complete.  All replies will be kept confidential and contact details are only needed for the prize draw, and will not be shared.

The survey will be open until close of play Wednesday 9 February.
