Designing Homes for Healthy Cognitive Ageing - Research Project

Holmes Miller is delighted to be supporting the University of Stirling's 'Healthy Ageing Challenge Social, Behavioural and Design Research Programme'. The aim of the project is to identify scalable and sustainable design improvements to homes that provide support for healthy cognitive ageing, enabling us, as we age, to continue living in our preferred environments as we experience cognitive change. The project involves a team of researchers, older people and partners in industry, local government and the voluntary sector.
