An ageing population should be seen as an opportunity to tackle inequality. In her TEDx talk, Professor Jayne Raisborough argues that while our world is changing and greying, the future can still be bright no matter our age. @J_Raisborough #TEDxLBU https://t.co/bAAmv8M6Et

Noticing things is hard, but it’s important. In his TEDx talk, Dr Nasser Hussain outlines how we can all be more aware of what is going on around us, and how the connection of ‘noticing’ will progress our changing world.
