The next survey will take place in 2026. It will be an online survey that we will ask you to complete yourself (rather than with an interviewer). We’ll send you more information about the survey closer to the time, and we’ll keep this page updated as we finalise plans.
We’d really like your help to make sure the Age 68 Survey covers the most important issues affecting you personally, and your generation more broadly.
The survey will cover three broad areas. We’d like your thoughts on what to ask about these three areas, and whether there are any additional topics we should include.
Please fill in our short form to tell us what you think.

The form above also asks whether you would like to put yourself forward for a new NCDS Study Member Advisory Panel. Find out more about what’s involved on the Study Member Advisory Panel page.
Please complete the form above to be considered for the Panel.
We’ve followed your journey from the very beginning and as you’ve moved through the different stages of your lives so far.
This next survey will be our first catch up with you since reaching the current state pension age. This is a big milestone for many people. Some of you will have already started your retirement and others of you will be looking to extend your working lives – whether through choice or necessity.
This survey will be an opportunity for you to look back and reflect on your journey to where you are now, as well as to look towards your future.
As with all our surveys, the answers you give will be added to the wealth of information you’ve shared with us before. This will help us investigate how your life experiences up until now have shaped where you are today. And the more of you who take part each time, the better we can understand how things like healthy ageing and preparing for retirement differ for different people.
