This workshop is for people moving from a mainstream career. It is designed to help participants find new ways to use old skills or to develop entirely new directions and new skills.

This may sound a strange title for a workshop on maintaining and, indeed, improving memory as we age, but there's a logic here and people who have attended these have loved them. It turns out that befriending forgetting is one of the surprising tricks for remembering, for helping memories work better as we age. 

The question 'should I still be living here?' seems to come with the territory of getting older. If we don't ask it of ourselves, someone else is likely to raise it. This workshop is an opportunity to explore the question in a systematic way, and in view of the increasing range of possible options that are appearing in the relatively recent field of 'environments for ageing'. 

We are working with Wes Carter, Peter Efford and Peter Fry, who have been conducting workshops with men, especially on eldership, for some time. Together we are developing a series of interactive forums where people will not only to talk about things they'd like to be different about their ageing but, through follow up and support, either individually or collectively, make those changes real.
