Description

The University of Derby's Creative Ageing Research Cluster invite you to attend a seminar on 'Creative Ageing: Has our time come? Developments in politics, policy and understanding' with Paul Cann (Age UK & Campaign to End Loneliness) and Alexandra Coulter (All-Party Parliamentary Group on Arts, Health and Well-Being & Arts and Health South West).

We've added years to life but have we added life to years? The answer is very mixed globally, with dramatic population ageing being regarded with scepticism, indifference and growing fear: as a demographic timebomb rather than a demographic triumph. But living longer could be a win for all, if we can respond with the right and opportunities to give people added life and fulfillment as they grow older.

Creative Ageing: Has our time come? will introduce policies on ageing, health, care and other policy arenas and highlight the crucial potential role of the creative arts, and major impacts of participation on physical and mental health, including the important opportunities this creates. Focusing on 'Creative Health', the exciting report from the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Arts, Health and Wellbeing, the seminar will consider 'what's next?' for advocacy and evidence.

"We do not cease to play beacuse we grow old; we grow old beacuse we cease to play".

From 2000 Paul Cann was Director of Policy and External Relations at Help the Aged, Chief Executive af Age UK Oxfordshire (2009-16), and chaired the National Public Policy of Age UK. His work with older people has focused on the challenges of poverty, social esclusion, dignity in care, ageism, and loneliness. Paul is Chair of Entelechy Arts, Chair of The Rodolfus Foundation and Full Circle, and Trustee of Sound Resource.

Alex Coulter has been Director of Arts & Health South West (AHSW) since 2010. She has been working in arts and health since 1998 and was the Arts Coordinator at Dorset County Hospital for 15 years. AHSW is a regional networking, advocacy and support organisation with over 2000 members. Alex provides the sceretariart for the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Arts, Health and Wellbeing on behalf of the Culture, Health and Wellbeing Alliance and is project managing the Inquiry into Arts, Health and Wellbeing.
