Businesses in Wigan town centre have pledged to support older people in the community.
The Galleries and Grand Arcade shopping centres are the latest to sign up to the age-friendly businesses initiative which is part of the council's work to create age-friendly neighbourhoods.
Wigan Council is working with Age UK and the local Ambition for Ageing team on the project, called Take a Seat, which encourages businesses to think about what they can offer an older person.
Earlier this year Atherton, Leigh, Pemberton and Shevington were recognised by Andy Burnham, Greater Manchester's Mayor, as being age-friendly neighbourhoods.
Businesses on Standish high street are also signing up to become age-friendly.
An age-friendly neighbourhood is a place where residents are committed to looking out for each other, older people feel they can have a say in what's going on in their local area, and there are spaces where people can get together.
Councillor Keith Cunliffe, deputy leader of Wigan Council and Portfolio Holder for Adult Social Care, said: "It is fantastic to see more businesses signing up to this initiative.
