This book shares insights from the Healthy Ageing Challenge, bringing research, business, policy and practice together to create age-friendly homes, workplaces and communities.


Spanning co-design with older people, business collaboration and innovations in design, work, housing, culture and health, it explores the real-world impact of ageing research and the opportunities for business in developing an ageing market.


From age-friendly homes to climate-resilient communities, the book provides a rich evidence base for healthier, more connected lives.

Judith Phillips is Professor of Social and Environmental Gerontology at the University of Stirling. Elaine Douglas is Associate Professor in Ageing and Public Health at the University of Stirling.
