Age Proud Leeds
Age Proud Leeds is a campaign to raise awareness of ageism and change negative attitudes about ageing and older people.
Join us in our campaign to challenge age discrimination.
Age Proud Leeds runs from October 2019 to March 2021 and focuses on five key messages.
Older, Different, Equal. (from July 2020)
Older people are diverse. Ageing and ageism affect us differently.
Age Proud Leeds is led by Leeds Older People’s Forum (as part of the Time to Shine programme) with the Leeds Age Friendly Partnership, Leeds City Council, the NHS in Leeds, the Centre for Ageing Better and voluntary sector organisations.
