This is a great article from @RobynVinter about the positive effects of projects such as Never Too Old to Rock.
Memory and brain health can be improved by playing musical instruments and singing in later life.

Last week's Never Too Old to Rock performance night song was Wishing Well by Free.
Tonight, everyone is learning Johnny B Goode by Chuck Berry.
It's free and a great way to connect with other like-minded people.

Keep an eye out for our project on @ITVTonight tomorrow night...

We're living longer than ever before as a population, but the years we're adding to our lives aren't necessarily the healthiest - in the UK, people are on average living 12 years in poor health, and that's 14% longer than in 1990... so what can we do to stop this?
In the first of two #ITVTonight programmes looking at healthy ageing, journalist @LaraLewington explores the lifestyle changes that might help us all live better for longer.
How To Age Well: Your Lifestyle is on ITV1, this Thursday at 8:30pm
