Venue: Holiday Inn, Ormeau Avenue, Belfast on April 29th, 2009 between 10am and 4.30pm.

 

Providing locally relevant information about ageing is an issue of growing importance for policy makers, planners, practitioners and academics.  The proposed longitudinal study on ageing would use a multi-disciplinary approach to combine both survey and physical examination to provide detailed information about the population of older people in NI and their experience of ageing as well as providing a comparative analysis of older people in NI and in other countries including the Republic of Ireland, England and Scotland.  The academic leaders of similar studies in England, Scotland and the Republic of Ireland will attend the event and explain the role and value of their respective studies.  This event is an opportunity to learn more about how a longitudinal study can be beneficial to your work now and in the future and for us hear what should be included in such a study as we move forward.
