OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
This conversation focuses on the question: What makes for a physical environment that is care and age friendly and how can we engender such an environment?
There will be two presentations, followed by a discussion:
Home Comforts: Housing, Neighbourhoods and an Ageing Society. Presented by Professor Jeremy Myerson, Director, Helen Hamlyn Centre for Design, Royal College of Art.
Choices on Housing in Later Life: A Miserably Narrow Range of Options? Presented by Paul Cann, Chief Executive, Age UK Oxfordshire.
