The council said the new strategy’s key themes were age equality, services that support ageing, and promoting age-friendly work skills and neighbourhoods.

Mr Robinson said older residents were essential to “both our culture and resilience as a city”.

“Older Mancunians are the backbone of this city,” he added.

He said the strategy would aim to celebrate older people, with Manchester aiming to become the most age-friendly city in the country.
