Research

We conduct research focused on healthy ageing for people aged 50 and over. Our studies explore the connections between long-term and multiple chronic conditions, disability, physical activity and disadvantage, longer working lives, and the use of digital technologies.

In all our research, we consider social and health inequalities, the experiences of carers and family members, financial constraints, and the impacts of living in poverty as we get older.

We do this through a range of research projects, as well as through rapid response initiatives, where we provide direct responses to policymakers’ new and emerging policy needs.

Over the past five years, we have completed numerous projects on a wide range of health and social care policy and practice issues.
