Our monthly meeting for organisations and individuals working with/for older people locally. We always welcome new partners at the Ageing Network meetings, so if you know of anyone working with older people, or are simply in contact with older people who are keen to have a voice on issues related to ageing, then do invite them to connect to the network.
This meeting will focus on older people and food resilience.
