Arts & Older People Programme
The Arts and Older People Programme is a pioneering initiative, established by the Arts Council in 2010, which tackles loneliness and promotes positive mental health and wellbeing among older people through participation in professionally-led arts activities.
Strengthening the Voice of Older People through the Arts
The programme supports arts organisations, local authorities, community and voluntary groups to develop arts-based projects for older people, ranging from intergenerational storytelling to circus skills.
The programme is supported by the National Lottery and the Public Health Agency.
