We were delighted to participate in the Ageing Well Festival on Saturday 30 September 2023 at the Kia Oval hosted by Lambeth Council.

The event celebrated the contribution older residents make to Lambeth. It marked the International Day of Older People, and Lambeth’s commitment to becoming an Age Friendly Borough, where Lambeth residents can live a full and active life as they get older.

The event was aimed at Lambeth residents aged 50 and over. There were many local voluntary and community groups present, hosting stalls and promoting their services and activities, and Healthwatch Lambeth was one of those.

Around 325 Lambeth residents attended which was an amazing turnout. It was a fantastic event and a good time was had by all!

Particular highlights were the Divatones Choir (photo above), the keep fit sessions, the delicious lunch, and the tea dance which closed the event.

The Health and Wellbeing Bus was also at the event giving out Flu and Covid jabs. 

The event was even covered by the BBC on the evening news!
