Gail Mountain presents on knowledge transfer relating to KT-EQUAL

Professor Gail Mountain was one of the presenters of a seminar convened by AgeUK on creating impact at the British Society of Gerontology Annual Conference, titled "Global Ageing: Implications for Individuals and Societies".  Gail spoke about the learning that came out of KT-EQUAL, a consortium of UK researchers dedicated to extending quality life for older and disabled people.  Other speakers included John Beard from the World Health Organisation (WHO) and Paul Cann from AgeUK Oxford. There was standing room only for this popular event.

Gail Mountain was also keynote speaker at the launch of the Ageing and Assisted living network, University of Essex on 17th September.  The audience of over 100 included academics, health and social care practitioners and commissioners, members of the lay public, service users and industry.
