What is this service?

This series of films will help you to learn more about some of the main issues we all face as we get older. Once we understand why certain things happen, we can take steps to prevent them and improve our lives at home. In the films you’ll find information about a wide variety of issues, ranging from Falls to Loneliness to Nutrition to Alcohol problems.

We’ve interviewed an extensive number of experts and older people, to give you lots of practical advice and tips to help you live better at home.

Our mission is to improve the quality of life for people with long-term mental and physical health problems by educating them, their carers and their healthcare professionals about the most effective ways of managing their conditions. Our vision is to bring practical, effective and credible information together in one place that will treat long term health as a complex and interconnected web of conditions and recognise that people with one condition may have other pressing needs.

You can find videos on a range of other long-term conditions on our services page.
