June is Age Without Apology Month

Did you know that June is National Age Without Apology Month? This month, we think about how we can think positively about ageing.

So often, the media creates a negative story around ageing — whether that's skincare brands selling products to make your skin look younger, or implying certain activities are 'only for younger people'. Age Without Apology Month aims to challenge those messages and celebrate the strength, experience and value that come with age.

In our work we see every day what older adults are capable of when they're given the right support — regaining the confidence to walk to the shops, get back in the garden, dance at a family wedding or hold a grandchild safely. Movement is for everyone, at every age.
