Older People’s Mental Health and Wellbeing Active

Started 2018. Outside the Box is working with a wide range of older people and organisations to find ways for older people to get good support for their mental health and wellbeing. These conversations have been going on over several years and we expect they will continue. We've brought together these conversations in the form of a long report and a summary report- we hope you will find them useful.

Housing Owls

Started 2017. Outside the Box is working with Falkirk Council and the Make It Happen Forum to provide peer to peer housing information source to Falkirk. Trained older volunteers will chat to people about matters related to housing that older people feel are relevant to them. They will share housing information using tools developed by older people for older people and information provided by partners.
