February’s webinar welcomes Heather Olive the Age Friendly Community Coordinator for Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole.

In a response to the older population increasing globally The World Health Organisation (WHO) in 2010 created an initiative called ‘Age Friendly Communities.’  The aim is that Age Friendly Communities enable people to continue to stay living in their homes, living the life they want to live for as long as possible. Importantly in these communities, older residents help to shape the place that they live. Locally we have built a network of over 80 organisations working towards this common aim. Nationally we share knowledge and best practice through the support of the Centre for Ageing Better.

Community voices is a collaboration between BU PIER partnership and Centre for Seldom Heard Voices to provide a platform and a voice to local community activists.

Please do join us for this webinar….
