The group of u3a members share resources and ideas on how we can improve our future lives – and have turned their attention to housing

Future Lives is a u3a group made up of members across the movement who share information and resources to inspire, influence and inform how we can improve our future lives.

The group aims to challenge and break down the attitudes and physical barriers that limit and restrict us as we get older. 

One of the themes that the group is looking at is housing and they need your input. Have you thought about how your home could support your independence in the years ahead and whether you would need to adapt it in some way? Perhaps you would need to move - and, if so, what you would want from a new home? The results will be used to put older people's voices at the heart of planning and developing housing for the future. Take the questionnaire now.

The group is also holding a series of events, which begin on 12 October 2022 with Professor Janet Lord sharing research about how we may all be able to age better. This is a hybrid event hosted by Lichfield u3a. Book your place now.
