60 over 60 campaign

Here at Age UK Cornwall, we are fully behind Cornwall Council's campaign '60 over 60'

We are asking people to nominate either themselves, inspirational friends or family members via an online form here: https://www.cornwall.gov.uk/60over60 

By highlighting the success and positivity in ageing, the campaign wants to change perceptions of ageing across Cornwall. By showing the value that older residents bring to the county, the campaign aims to empower people to feel more positive about their own futures and be proactive in taking steps to live and age well.

Sometimes it's hard to see what we do as being amazing.

It might be part of our routine to volunteer or have that daily swim in the sea. However, making the effort to do something positive, no matter how big or small, could help to inspire others.

Cornwall Council is looking to celebrate sixty of the most inspirational residents over the age of 60 in Cornwall to help to highlight positive ways in which we can all live and age well.

Who are we looking for?

As residents, you come from all walks of life and do all sorts of amazing things. From small acts of kindness to keeping up with an interesting hobby or running your own business, we want to hear about the things that you do to live happily and healthily.

Nominate someone else

Perhaps you have a neighbour who always goes out of their way to brighten up your day or a friend or family member who does something that inspires you. Get in touch today and help us to celebrate success and positivity in ageing.

Successful nominations

If you know someone who's worth celebrating, or feel that there's something that you do that could inspire others to live well, then get in touch and let us know why!

Successful nominations will be profiled on our website and social media as part of a positive ageing well campaign to celebrate Cornwall's amazing residents over 60. You can nominate here until the 10th of May.
