There are hardly any research initiatives in the field of active and healthy ageing for people with cerebral palsy. To find solutions to this social challenge needs a network of excellence in research to provide a better life to all of society. Information from 34 articles on cerebral palsy and aging was analyzed, specifically on perceived needs, quality of life and the impact of aging on people with cerebral palsy. The results of this review highlight the importance of a preventive approach, which requires research on new needs and quality of life indicators in people with cerebral palsy when ageing. This way may facilitate the integral care of this group at this stage of life. Investing in research and innovation is essential for the future, it is the way to promote products and services and thus create a better society for all citizens.
