Now in its third year, UK Older People’s Day will be celebrated on Thursday, 1st October this year.

Coinciding with the UN International Day for Older People and under the banner ‘Full of Life’, events will be held in local communities throughout the UK with the aim of tackling outdated sterotypes surrounding aging.

By bringing together people of all ages, ‘Full of Life’ aims to celebrate the achievements of older people and to highlight their contribution to both our economy and our society.

It also aims to recognise the aspirations of older people and to acknowledge the opportunities presented to those in their Third Age.

To learn more about Older People’s day and events in your area, or to get involved with organizing your own events, please visit Full of Life for further information.
