Bristol is applying to the World Health Organisation to be officially recognised as an Age Friendly City… and here in Bedminster we’re working to bolster that bid.

The wonderful team at Bristol Ageing Better are working hard with local businesses to ensure BS3 is a truly age friendly neighbourhood, by making it easier for people to experience everything Bedminster has to offer.

Bristol Ageing Better are currently working on a project with local businesses to improve the the local area for those suffering from dementia.

Staff from BAB have been visiting and working with local businesses outlining how they can become dementia friendly, to ensure that those living with dementia remain active in the community.

Work on this project is currently ongoing, if you’re a business owner an would like some more information on how you can become dementia friendly then please contact ruth.green@bs3community.org.uk
