Who is The Alliance of Age Sector NGOs?
The Alliance of Age Sector NGOs (the Alliance) represents the collective thinking of eight significant NGOs working in the age sector. As individual entities, we provide vital services and programmes for older people, support older people to contribute to and participate in community life and advocate for better policies, services and supports for older people at national and local level. Together, we collaborate to seek action on specific issues that make older people’s lives unnecessarily difficult. We work together to ensure Ireland becomes a better place in which to grow older. The Alliance is committed to collaborative leadership and the pooling of our capacity and resources to maximise our collective impact. The eight member organisations are Active Retirement Ireland, Age & Opportunity, ALONE, The Alzheimer Society of Ireland, Irish Hospice Foundation, The Irish Senior Citizens Parliament, Third Age and Cope Galway. Meetings are attended by the CEOs of the eight member organisations together with the Alliance’s Independent Chair, Maurice O’Connell.
