We are living longer, but are we really healthier?
Join the Ageing and Dementia Research Centre for our growing up and getting old event (part of Bournemouth University Festival of Learning week) which is fun and interactive for all. Hear about good nutrition and lifestyle choices, innovative hospital care, developments in care home design guidelines, and why older people should take up graffiti and practice Tai Chi (with a free taster session of Tai Chi).
The event will take place on Wednesday 12th July 2017 between 10am and 1pm in the Student Hall at Talbot Campus.
