We're so proud to be partnering with Amba Health and Care, who have been selected for the UKRI Healthy Ageing Challenge.
Their 'Story So Far' report includes first-hand testimony from funded projects. These quotes are a great reminder of why funding and support are needed.
"As I age, my aim is to remain healthy, active and involved. I seek out challenging opportunities, and in giving back to society the benefits of my lived experienced, I get a sense of value and fulfilment in return."
Ros Wilson, Citizen Representative, Challenge Competition Panel
"If we could improve how we age so that we live for another year in better health, that is worth, in present value terms, around £5 trillion to the UK economy."
Andrew J. Scott, Professor of Economics and author of 'The 100 Year Life', 2022.
