 Become a Paid Subscriber: https://anchor.fm/maturemovers/subscribeMature Movers is all about inspiring people to live healthy long lives. I grew up thinking that once you're 'old' that's it, you can't walk, everything becomes harder and it is inevitable that you become sick. Little did I realise that this was totally wrong. During these podcasts I discuss the importance of movement in later life and interview very inspiring people in the 'ageing community' to discuss healthy living for healthy ageing, life's purpose after 50 and more! https://ko-fi.com/vitalitycoach

    Feb 21 2023

    In this podcast episode we discuss ageism, ableism, retirement and pay gaps with University research professors Sarah Vickerstaff and Mariska Van Der Horst. In a society where people are living longer, working longer and having to save more for retirement, these discussions are really important to make people aware of. If you liked this episode please share to those in later life who may experience ageism.

    Andrew Middleton is the founder and CEO of INDY, I'm Not Done Yet. Through the organisation, Andrew is on a mission to inspire older adults to live a rich and fulfilling life. He is particularly interested in combatting ageism and encouraging older people to reach their full potential. For Andrew, and the many others adopting the INDY life, stereotypical retirement is unfulfilling and wasted. Instead, they go out and find new hobbies and explore new passions!

    Innovation and research into Healthy Ageing - Mature Movers (S3:E2)

    In this episode I had the pleasure of talking with George MacGinnis, the Healthy Ageing Challenger Director at UKRI - so a core member of the change and innovation happening in this sector. From innovation and social science to the economic challenges and investment opportunities, this episode of Mature Movers delves into the heart of the research industry; an industry where the decisions made today sustainably affect the future of later life. The thing I learnt the most from this conversation with how interconnected human health is to so many sectors e.g. housing, technology, economics etc...
