Hearing a great deal that chimes with our research at today’s 100 Year Life event on #housing and #ageing. When it comes to getting outdoors, the mundane matters and the commonplace counts! Design AND maintenance. Homes not prisons.

Just got this @MMPresearch calender. All set for the new year with tips for designing environments enjoyable to be in & easy to move around in as we age. Glad to see #FeelGoodSpaces connections live on with the work with @CAE_info. Www.mobilitymoodplace.ac.uk

A great result for West Lothian Council and our project partner, NHS Lothian. Margaret Douglas has been an excellent chair of our Advisory Group and we are so grateful for her input over the years. dailyrecord.co.uk/news/local…

Anyone know of similar community-wide projects happening in Scotland? Particularly interested in inter-generational approaches @OPENspace_rc x.com/DementiaMap/status/937…

Building active communities. Great to see these pilot schemes targeting the issue of better health and getting folk active from a broad perspective eg: looking at outdoor spaces, community-wide involvement etc. Interesting to see how it is implemented buff.ly/2ASbUXe
