AnnotationLeading organisations from across housing, care and ageing convened for a one-day workshop, to consider some of the biggest challenges to good health and well-being in later life. The aim was to collectively think and apply design principles, and find new ideas to age-proof our society and communities. This paper outlines the conclusions reached on four key areas: integrating services; making finance more flexible; creating age-friendly communities (including homes and the built environment); and engaging with older people in designing new products. Case studies from across the UK serve to illustrate each area. (RH).
