Great to hear from Dr Emer Coveney @AgeFriendlyIrl about their current programme of work improving the lives of older people across Ireland. Lots of ideas, encouragement & motivation for members of the Age Friendly Network NI at yesterday's meeting #ThinkBig

I’ve got a warning on a scam text, purportedly from the HSE, asking people to confirm availability for vaccination, give PPS number, date-of-birth & address. Do not respond to it. Inform any elderly/vulnerable person you know. They will be contacted by their GP about vaccination.

Enjoyed reconnecting with #AgeFriendly network by @Age_NI & @publichealthni. Ptnsp btwn Councils & AgeSectorNetworks has accelerated during #COVID19, but there needs to be serious consideration about invstmt in AgeSectorNetwirks given to sustain this collaborative effort.

There's nothing quite like a barbecue to lift people's spirits during #lockdown. 🍔 Brookhill House, our housing with care scheme in #Coleraine, recently made the most of the sunshine organising this BBQ for tenants outside in the car park! Looks like great fun! 😀
