Happy 10th year anniversary to @CommonAgeAssoc. I’ve been involved in CommonAge since 2017, it has allowed me to broaden my outlook on ageing across the Commonwealth, including Scotland & Canada. I look forward to more years of impact as we continue to shape the future of ageing

We should recognise that the most valuable people in our societies are paid nothing - the volunteers! @CommonAgeAssoc #GAN2023

Good luck Rianna! I’m sure you will have an amazing experience as I did in 2013 when the idea for @CommonAgeAssoc was conceived. Enjoy Canada and we look forward to hearing how it goes. Keep posting!#CSC2023
The Duke of Edinburgh Study Conference‼️ Delighted and honoured to be part of this year’s cohort. I believe this experience will provide an environment for learning and sharing perspectives, in preparation to undertake a master’s degree in #dementia at @ucl this September!

Wonderful to see the Inver House celebrated. Having been so involved in its development during my time as CEO it’s great now to be living just a mile away on the beautiful Isle of Wight, and able to visit.
Inver House love to partake in afternoon tea, and they decided to make some delicious fairy cakes to enjoy during one of their recent afternoon teas! Find out more about what Inver House gets up to today:  somersetcare.co.uk/care-home…
