How We Work

The Brighton and Hove Older People's Council (OPC) is an independent, non-party-political, voluntary, listening, advising and campaigning group that is free to attend and participate in.
It gives a voice to people aged 50 and over who reside in the Brighton and Hove City Council area.
We act as critical friends to the Council, attend relevant council and health meetings, scrutinise policies, invite policy decision makers to our meetings & take part in consultations.
We are in regular contact with other older-people related organisations We publicise issues through public meetings, community contacts and writing to decision makers.
The OPC holds regular Public Meeting / Events.
