Join us for the latest installation of IFA’s Virtual Town Hall series on COVID-19 and Older People. This meeting will highlight Challenges and Opportunities for Promoting Healthy Ageing.

For nearly a year, the COVID-19 pandemic has challenged us to adapt and respond to a rapidly changing environment. The importance of community engagement in encouraging and supporting healthy ageing through this period of unprecedented challenges has never been more important. Leading a discussion around opportunities to expand good practices observed in Healthy Ageing Centres is Prof. Tara Keck, Professor of Neuroscience and Wellcome Trust Senior Research Fellow in the Department of Neuroscience, Physiology and Pharmacology at University College London.

Opening Remarks: Prof. Tara Keck, Professor of Neuroscience, Wellcome Trust Senior Research Fellow, Department of Neuroscience, Physiology and Pharmacology University College London
