Move It or Lose It Healthy Ageing Conference

What an uplifting event on 8th April 2022, ending with us all on our feet learning some Bollywood moves!

Connecting with over 120 people for real was incredible after so long talking to people on screen.

I was honoured to be among an illustrious array of speakers – all Professors /Doctors – including the amazing Professor Sir Muir Gray. They gave fascinating presentations on topics ranging from physical activity and ageing, Type 2 Diabetes and the role of food and activity, to Long Covid. Then yours truly spoke on ageing joyfully and the benefits of dancing!

Huge thanks to Julie Robinson for inviting me and giving me the thrill of selling all the books I’d brought within 5 minutes of finishing my talk. Now that’s what I call an appreciative audience!

I met many inspiring Instructors for Move It or Lose It and discovered all the fantastic work it does in motivating and improving the fitness and activity of older people through their exercise classes. Maybe you might be interested in joining them? Find out more here.
