Getting up. Getting active.
Working towards active and healthy ageing.
Our Studies
REACT
The REACT programme is a group-based exercise and health behavioural maintenance intervention study. It combines exercise, education and social activities designed for older adults starting to experience mobility limitations.
ACE/ACTIF
The ACE/ACTIF programme is a peer-volunteering intervention study. Peer volunteers (55 yrs +) support older people (65 yrs +) at risk of mobility limitations to become more active. The peer volunteers become the ‘buddy’ to older adults encouraging them to get out and about. Together they take advantage of the many physical activity sessions, programmes and opportunities that already exist locally.
Who are we?
Active Ageing Research brings together a group of leading researchers focused on delivering evidence-based, practical and cost-effective solutions to health issues associated with ageing through physical activity interventions.
