This year the theme is Celebrate Ageing. Challenge Ageism. We want to celebrate the value and contributions of older people in society and share people’s diverse experiences of growing older. When we celebrate ageing, together, on the day, we will challenge the negative beliefs and actions connected to older age.
We’re offering grants of up to £500, plus an additional £150 for accessibility improvements, to help bring your ideas to life. Whether thinking about ageing is your group’s bread and butter or the Age Without Limits Day is your first chance to engage with the issue of ageism, we are excited to see how you interpret the theme and mark the day in a way that works for you and your community.
Last year we were blown away by the creativity communities brought to marking the day- from art exhibitions and photography competitions to intergenerational skills sharing events. Read more about last year’s events by checking out this blog and visiting the Age Without Limits website.
Please note this grant is only available to community groups and voluntary sector organisations within areas who are members of the UK Network of Age-friendly Communities.
The deadline is apply is 5pm 10th February 2025.
