The science of ageing and the culture of youth 

A study of the experiencing of Ageing 

What the study is about 

Ageing is often seen as negative, with descriptions of decline, loss, and illness. We are looking at the views, experiences, and expectations of ageing. We want to understand these views so that we can gain more understanding of where negative conceptions of ageing come from, and what people need as they age so they can age as they want to 

What you will have to do 

If you are an adult aged 50-80 years old we want to invite you to take part in an interview about ageing. In the interview, we will discuss your experiences and thoughts about ageing and ask questions about your views on what ageing means to you. The interview can be completed face-to-face, by telephone, or on an online video platform. 

How you can get involved  

If you would like more information about the SAACY study or you would like to take part, please contact Dr Laura Hughes on the details below, or scan the QR code to fill in a contact form, or visit our website.

The Action Fraud Cyber crime figures for Havering in December 2022

The Mayor’s Office for Policing And Crime (MOPAC) no longer fits the needs of the London Borough of Havering.

No access or points of contact, poor visibility of police on the streets, one police station in 43 sq. Miles, so no engagement or exchange of information with our neighbourhood police teams.

LBH needs to feel a safe place to grow old and we no longer feel the current service fits our needs and is of poor value.

We support the Officers we have and this is no criticism of them.

Don’t miss out on The Mayor of London’s Warmer Homes Programme!

Are you a private tenant or homeowner living in a cold, draughty property? Do you receive benefits or are a low-income household? If the answer is yes to both these question, your home could qualify for a full energy-efficiency upgrade.

The Mayor of London’s Warmer Homes Programme is offering up to £25,000 per household to make poorly-insulated homes warmer and cheaper to heat. Long-term savings on energy bills can be made by home upgrades such as wall, loft and floor insulation, double-glazing, draught-proofing, solar panels or heat pumps.

Homes with electric heating systems will benefit the most from the Warmer Homes programme. (The cost of electrically-heated homes can be up to four times as much as the cost of gas central heating.)

Don’t miss out on the chance to take the pain out of your energy bills and protect your home (and yourself!) from the cold. >>>> Apply today at www.warmerhomes.london

The Greater London Authority has teamed up with RetrofitWorks – a Trustmarked retrofitting cooperative – to deliver this fantastic offer.

Need some help with an application?

Across London organisations are supporting homeowners to access the grant free of cost. Click here to see the list of Warmer Homes Advocates and organisations lending a hand.
