Center for Aging Better (AgeTech UK) ^{Social and Communication}

Greater Manchester’s status as the UK’s first age-friendly city-region comes as a result of the work that has been done so far by the Combined Authority’s Ageing Hub, which includes working with local authorities to develop their age-friendly plans; carrying out pilot research on worklessness and job insecurity amongst older people (with Centre for Ageing Better); and launching the ‘Take a Seat’ campaign across Greater Manchester to make it easier for older people to access local amenities.
