Learning from Leicester Ageing Together
Leicester Ageing Together is an action research project. We have been delivering services through our partners and working with academics to learn from the programme, in order to influence future commissioning and service development.
Here we will share reports on different topics, which are data driven and evidence what we do.
Empowering Communities - Learning event, 3rd July 2019
This interactive workshop reflected on key learning on what works (and doesn’t work) in empowering people aged 50+ to develop creative responses to loneliness and social isolation.
We considered findings from independent evaluations of the LAT Partnership, Community Connectors, and Mental Wellbeing Project and how LAT interventions support work across health and care systems through developing and supporting vibrant and resilient communities of both place and identity. Information from the event is here.
