Age Without Limits Action Day 

Age Without Limits is a national campaign highlighting the prejudice that’s often faced by older people. Newham Council is committed to tackling ageism as part of our Ageing Well strategy. As part of the strategy, we have secured Age-friendly Employer status, set up the Ageing Well Resident Advisory Group and the Ageing Well WhatsApp broadcast group and hosted the Age Well Festival in October which was attended by over 400 residents. 

On Wednesday 20 March, the Adult Social Care team held awareness activities for Age Without Limits Action Day to encourage everyone to do something to change the narrative about ageing. The Ageing Well Team ran pop up stalls outside Stratford Shopping Centre and ASDA Beckton in partnership with residents groups, colleagues from Health and Social care and local voluntary and community faith organisations.
