Engage with Age Seeks New Trustees to Shape 2026–29 Strategy

Posted on: February 6th, 2026

Engage with Age seeks new Trustees to join its committed board. Help us empower older people to lead happy, healthy, connected, and independent lives through working on Engage with Age’s strategic development.

Engage with Age was established in 2000. The charity operates mainly in south and east Belfast, delivering programmes that address loneliness and isolation, support health and wellbeing, strengthen the capacity of older people’s groups and forums, and empower older people to influence matters affecting their lives.

Engage with Age is an imaginative and creative organisation, led by older people and focused on enabling older people to improve their quality of life. As we prepare to move into our new Strategic Plan for 2026–29, we are seeking new trustees who can support our next phase of development, sustainability, and impact.
