Project Publications and Newsletters
Two new publications are now available regarding the ‘Transitions in Kitchen Living’ project.
First a summary of findings from the research published through the RCUKs New Dynamics of Ageing programme. So follow this link and you will be able to find the ‘Kitchen Living’ Project as well as catch up with all the other innovative projects is programme. If your interest is design then look out for ‘Safety on Stairs’, ‘Design for Ageing Well’ and ‘TACT3’ which all featured at ‘Design for Living in Later Life’ (see events and activities).
The second is the new publication: ‘The Easier Kitchen: making it happen’ which the team have put together from the study using the ways of coping that older participants are using in the kitchen and raising those issues that we should all consider if we want to re-think our kitchen as we get older.
