It was great to meet @debs_wb London's Deputy Mayor for Communities and Social Justice as well as Sue Johnson and Sarah Thompson from the Greater London Authority this afternoon. We all had a really important and positive conversation about ageing in London.

Incredible resilience from this Arsenal team to finally get over the line and become champions. It must have been so hard to keep going for so long without anything to show for it. An incredible building job by Arteta.

This morning we hosted a tabletop meeting for Age UKs across London to discuss the inclusion of older Londoners in #ExtremeWeather#EmergencyPreparedness. This is part of London Communities Emergency Partnership's Community Resilience Capabilities Project

Isn’t it great that we’re celebrating David Attenborough’s 100th birthday whilst ignoring the message he’s spent the last 20 years trying to get through to us:
Since sharing our manifesto with the leaders of the five main local party groups for each borough, we now have a list of local parties who have replied to us and pledged their support. You can read our manifesto here https://t.co/SjrCtA10PD
At @ageuklondon we have launched today our new research on ageism in London and our #LondonAgainstAgeism campaign. We work on so many issues from transport to poverty and I’m proud we have launched this new campaign on ageism. 👉 https://t.co/vYRsvDVJfo
Ageism is widespread across London - and now we have the data to prove it.
📊 51% of older Londoners have experienced ageism
💬 37% feel devalued
😔 62% don’t feel able to speak out
It’s time for change.
Join us and stand with #LondonAgainstAgeism
