Last week the Ageing Well Exhibition went on tour to some of the Wellbeing Hubs and people were invited to join workshops to explore what ageing means to them.

Memories were shared and even some connections that people didn't know they had to each other - mutual friends, places they grew up and shared experiences.

It was an honour to hear the stories of love, loss and hope that we're so openly shared in this space.

The exhibition will be at Plymstock Library on the 1st of October 2026 as part of the Wellbeing Event and International Older Persons Day. Don't miss your chance to see it!

Birthdays are worth being around for, but up to 2 in 3 smokers die around 10 years early unless they quit.

Don’t become part of the statistic.

Get the help you need to quit this Stoptober, so you’re there to see plenty more candles being blown out.

Would you like to be a Good Neighbour Support Volunteer?
A couple of hours each week (during the day, on a weekday) to visit a local person in their own home for shopping support and conversation. You’d see the same person each week and it’d be someone largely housebound with little or no local family or other support.

Enrich someone’s life and your own!
Excellent ongoing support for our team of around 40 volunteers
Ideally you’ll have your own transport

Here’s what our volunteers say:
“The …..thanks received from people are fantastic rewards, making me feel valued and needed” (David)

Gail, who shops for an elderly person and visits another to offer social interaction, says becoming a volunteer has played a big role in restoring her own confidence after covid.
“ It keeps me active, engaged and I really look forward to my visits…. I am loving life again.” (Gail)

Do you know your health numbers?

We’ll be out and about across Plymouth libraries offering free blood pressure checks and Know Your Measurements sessions.

Our advanced scales do more than just measure weight – they give insight into:

- Body fat
- Key health indicators
- What’s happening inside your body

This helps you better understand your health and make small, positive changes towards a healthier lifestyle.

Knowing your numbers can help reduce the risk of diabetes, strokes, and heart attacks – small steps today really can make a big difference tomorrow.

Following a successful launch earlier this year, the Ageing Well Exhibition will now travel to a series of Wellbeing Hubs, giving more residents the chance to experience a moving collection of photography, textiles and community-created artwork that challenges stereotypes around ageing and celebrates later life.

The exhibition features photographs of older Plymouth residents who are redefining what it means to grow older, alongside a unique handmade garment created by an older people’s group. Developed in response to shared conversations and experiences, the garment explores the many different meanings of ageing through creativity and storytelling.

Visitors will also have the opportunity to take part in creative workshops at each venue, helping to shape the next chapter of the exhibition by sharing their own experiences, perspectives and ideas about ageing in Plymouth.

The exhibition will visit:

Monday 21 September, 9.30am to 4pm, workshop 11am to 1pm, Jan Cutting Healthy Living Centre, PL2 2PQ
Tuesday 22 September, 9.30am to 4pm, workshop 1pm to 4pm, Four Greens Community Centre, PL5 4DD
Thursday 24 September, 9.30am to 4pm, workshop 12pm to 2pm, Elm Wellbeing Hub, PL6 8UE
Friday 25 September, 9.30am to 4pm, workshop 9am to 12pm, Southway Community Hub, PL6 6TE

The tour will culminate at Plymouth’s International Older Persons Day celebrations on 1 October, taking place across Plymstock Library, Plymstock Community Centre and the Age UK building.
