Still young enough
Our campaign Still Young Enough to… promotes healthy lifestyles for older people across Norfolk. It encourages us to keep our minds and bodies active so we can help maintain our health in later years and remain independent for as long as possible.
It also reminds us that getting older doesn’t mean we have to stop living a healthy and fulfilling life, or be proud of who we are.
Keeping your body active - how much is enough?
Studies show that adults should aim to be active every day and take part in 150 minutes of moderate activity a week.
You can use Active Norfolk's activity finder to find activities while are accessible for older people.
Keeping your mind active - learn something new
The challenge of learning something new is also one of the very best ways to help keep you sharp and active for longer – and it can be fun too.
Adult Learning
Learning a new skill is a great way of keeping your mind active as you get older. Look at the courses we offer to find one that interests you.
Libraries
Our libraries offer a range of events and resources that can help keep your mind active, including a range of eBooks, eAudio books, eNewspapers and eMagazines that can be downloaded free of charge. All you need is your library card.
