Older People's Parliament 2026

The Older People’s Parliament is returning for 2026.

The Northern Ireland Assembly represents and makes laws for everyone who lives here. It is important that everyone has an opportunity to have their say on issues that matter to them.

One of the ways we do this is through the Outreach Parliaments, which provide a platform for relevant sectors to engage directly with decision-makers and raise issues of concern.

The Older People’s Parliament is back for 2026, taking place on 15 October 2026 in Parliament Buildings.

Take Part in the Public Survey

We are launching a public consultation survey, which will help to identify the key issues to be discussed at the Parliament.

The survey is aimed at older people across Northern Ireland.
