What an amazing day! Over 600 Barnet residents and 25 local organisations came to @MiddlesexUni to celebrate the launch of #AgeFriendlyBarnet. We were blown away with the enthusiasm and excitement for #SilverSunday. We have a few thanks in order... (1 of 7) #IDOP2023

Today is #AgeWithoutLimits Action Day. A day where we stand up to ageism and celebrate older people who they are and what they do. The theme is #SeeandBeSeen. We especially pay tribute to our amazing campaigners, older Londoners who steadfastly support our campaigns.

Trying something new in January might be a cliché - but it's a great excuse to challenge yourself and try something new. We have made a guide which lists some of the #AgeFriendly activities across the borough for you to try this January. Link to full guide in comments!

It's festive season & if you need an excuse to socialise, just remember that meeting up with others & seeing friends is good for our brains - with or without a #dementia diagnosis. It's never too late & never too early to reduce the risk of memory loss. https://t.co/qr6i9QHWsC
