Positive Ageing Week

This event has ended

Various Locations, Sunday 1st October - Saturday 7th October

Positive Ageing Week (PAW) is an initiative by Age Action to celebrate the contributions of older people and to promote their agency. The event emphasises the positive aspects of aging and the significant roles older individuals play in our communities and families. The week-long event happens yearly, with a new theme, and aims to challenge stereotypes and misconceptions about aging and to highlight the positivity and vitality of older age.

2023 Theme: Challenging Ageism
Positive Ageing Week 2023 will carry on the theme of Challenging Ageism – Reframing How We Think, Feel and Act towards ageing and older persons.

Anyone and everyone can participate in PAW. We encourage community-based events, organised by groups or individuals as well as national events, in partnership with Age Action or not, to reflect the diversity of experience and situation of older people.
