Intergenerational Lives & Healthy Ageing
In an era of longer lives and shifting social structures, one question feels increasingly urgent:
How do we ensure we are not just living longer — but living well, together?
Intergenerational Lives & Healthy Ageing is a morning panel and community conversation exploring the role of faith-based and civic institutions in building healthier, more connected, and more resilient long lives.
Hosted at the historic Temple Church, this gathering will bring together academic, civic, and community leaders to examine how intergenerational collaboration can:
Reduce loneliness and social isolation
Support midlife transitions and extended working lives
Strengthen local care networks
Build meaningful connection across generations
Reimagine ageing as a shared societal project
Rather than focusing solely on medical or technological solutions, this conversation centers community infrastructure — the social spaces, rituals, and relationships that sustain us across the life course.
What to Expect
45–60 minute moderated panel
Reflections from leaders working across ageing, community, and civic life
Audience Q&A
Light refreshments and informal networking
This event is designed for students, faith leaders, social entrepreneurs, policymakers, and anyone interested in the future of ageing in the UK.
As life expectancy extends, the question is not only how long we live — but how we live across generations.
Join us for a thoughtful morning dialogue in one of London’s most historic civic spaces.
