Later life: The art and the science, London – 26 October 2015
A symposium on positive approaches to ageing.
Challenging the frequently negative media focus on the old-age ‘burden’, this symposium will focus on the contributions that older people themselves make to society and the relationship between positivity and health.
The meeting aims to give delegates a greater understanding of
- the importance of the environment, culture and exercise in healthy ageing.
- how people can be motivated to make lifestyle changes
- how older people can be actively involved in the design of a healthy environment
- the importance of mood and positive self image in maintaining health in old age
Venue: Royal Society of Medicine, Wimpole St., London.
