ON 24 October at The Lights, the Andover and District Older Peoples’ Forum is organising an event entitled ‘Harnessing the Grey Vote’, and one part of the programme will be a question and answer session to which local residents over the age of 50 years can pose questions to panellists representing the five main political parties about issues of key importance to pensioners, in order to live independent and healthy lives.

We do need these questions in advance in order to get the most out of this session, so please send questions to Mollie Antrobus, care of Test Valley Community Services, The Bus Station, West Street, Andover, SP10 1QP.

Andover and District Older Peoples’ Forum is a non-party political voluntary organisation which provides information for and lobbies on behalf of older people on issues of importance to them.

Responses by 4 October.
