The IAHSA conference in London had over 700 attendees from over 30 countries. Great fun!
Highlights for me (besides the Eden and Green House symposia) were:
– seeing Jane Verity and Hilary lee win this year’s Award of Excellence for their Spark of Life program (they had tea with Baroness Julia Neuberger afterward at the House of Lords!)
– Hearing Dr. Alex Kalache speak about the WHO’s Age-Friendly Cities initiative
– Our Eden dinner at Chez Gerard (see photos below)
– a wonderful stay at the Merzeder-Taylor home on Hayling Island, and a great day in Bradford-on-Avon and Bath today with June Burgess and Paul Bailey.I’ll post more photos as time goes on. Back to the USA Friday!
