Natalie works to create more age-friendly homes and communities.
Natalie joined the Centre for Ageing Better in 2016. Her role is to help create more age-friendly homes and communities where people can live longer, healthier lives and keep doing the things that matter to them.
Her team works to improve the quality of existing homes as well as ensuring that new homes being built are accessible, affordable, suitable and desirable for older people to move to. As the UK affiliate of the World Health Organisation’s Global Network for Age-friendly Cities and Communities her team has spearheaded the growth and development of Age-friendly Communities across the UK since 2017.
Natalie has been working on ageing issues locally, nationally, and internationally since 2010. She was previously at AARP in Washington, DC translating international practice for a US audience, and also at Age UK London.
