Organisations that sign-up to the Age-Friendly Standards value all generations and want to provide a welcoming and positive experience for visitors, regardless of their age.
The Age-Friendly Standards are designed to complement the existing Family Arts Standards which codify good practice in welcoming families. The Age-Friendly Standards provide specific guidance on welcoming older generations. Displaying the logo affirms that an organisation has considered the often more complex needs of older visitors.
These Standards were developed in consultation with older arts attenders, a range of arts and ageing experts, and a large number of arts and cultural organisations across the UK.
They apply to any organisation that provides cultural experiences which include older people, whether they operate from a venue or not.
