Let’s Age Well!

None of us want to stop doing the things that make us happy! That’s why the NHS in Lincolnshire and other partners are committed to supporting you to age well.

Gardening, exercise, walking the dog – doing anything we enjoy is good for the soul and improves general wellbeing and happiness. Sometimes, getting a bit older can impact our ability to do the things we love, but that doesn’t mean we have to give up or stop altogether.

What does ‘Ageing Well’ mean for me?

We are all different and have different lifestyles and individual needs. If doing what we have always done isn’t possible, there is support available to help us adapt to keep our mind and body active. Finding new things to do in later life can help to keep us physically and mentally well.

Let’s use it, not lose it!

Lincolnshire’s health and care services offer all kinds of support for anyone over 65 years. Lots of advice is available for us, our families or carers about aging well and, most importantly, staying well, in later life.
