AnnotationInitiatives, such as Better Government for Older People, seek to increase the involvement of older people in the process of decision making on issues which affect them. The authors of this booklet spent a year studying how older people, both through organisations and individually, might influence policy decisions. There are various ways in which local forums for older people are set up, which are outlined in this booklet. Also included are suggestions for a forum's continuing success, and an example of a constitution. (RH).
