Open Lab

On Thursday was another Brunel afternoon for Brunel Older People Reference Group there was an Open lab afternoon in Mary Seacole department. One of my spritely and youthful looking 80yrs old neighbour from the next street to me asked to come along. We had a brilliant time together with the team of researchers and other members of BORG. We retired folk have a lot of life and career experiences in us and it is a wonderful feeling for young and old to learn and share with one another.  There is some important work going on to understand ageing looking visual and cognitive behaviour and mobility. It is good that there is a look at how falls occur and how to prevent them. We worry as we get older of the fall that leads to fractured neck of femur and hospital admission. We all wish to keep our independence and age healthy as possible.
