Join RIBA and Barts Heritage for a one-day event exploring growing and ageing in the city, and how our built environment shapes health and wellbeing throughout our lives.

Through talks, workshops, short walks, and creative and reflective spaces, learn from those reimagining urban spaces of care and belonging today. Learn from Wright & Wright, Root and Erect and others about London’s historic almshouses today, alternative housing models, and child-friendly spaces designed for play.
