Open Age

Open Age is a charity that keeps its older people healthier, happier and having fun for longer. We have a 30-year history of delivering group activities for older people and during lockdown ran an award-winning programme of interactive online activities. We have now secured significant funding to build on our success and build a new Open Age online service. The aim of the project is to engage with older people and commissioners of services for them (e.g., Local Authorities, Housing Associations, Health Services) and use design research approaches to deliver a service blueprint and service design that will be used to develop the new service.
