Positive steps to tackle elder abuse together - will you help?

Sign the Rule Out Abuse charter today at www.agecymru.org.uk/ruleoutabuse

Age Cymru’s major new campaign calls on the Welsh Government to commit to 3 principles which the organisation believes should underpin all work to protect adults at risk of abuse:

- Prioritise safety

- Protect from harm and respect choices

- Promote the right to dignity and respect

These principles mean creating a system which values people’s choices and wishes, dignity, respect, and protection from harm.

The Rule Out Abuse campaign is calling for strengthened legislation as part of a robust toolkit that needs to be engaged to protect adults from abuse, including renewed guidance, training, increased public awareness and access to advocacy services.

The development of any new framework must ensure that the individual at risk of harm is truly at the centre of any assessment, decision or action taken.

Age Cymru needs as many individuals and organisations as possible to sign their support for the Rule Out Abuse charter.
