New report explores the attitudes, lifestyle and volunteering activity of the 50+ age group in Northern Ireland
A new report published by the ‘Unlocking Potential’ Project, titled ‘Making the Connection 2’, has focused on understanding the 50+ age group in Northern Ireland in terms of their volunteering experience and attitudes towards it. It has also taken a broader interest in understanding volunteer and non-volunteer use of the internet, voting behaviour and health and well being. The findings are based on 350 telephone interviews with people aged 50 or over in Northern Ireland.
