A lifetime in the city: LFA pop-up festival

Join us for a day of talks, activities and displays exploring designing for growing, ageing, and lifelong wellbeing in the city
About this Event

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. Hear from Wright & Wright, Root and Erect and others about London’s historic almshouses today, alternative housing models, and child-friendly spaces designed for play. Next to the historic St Barts Hospital, this is a chance to learn, connect, and be inspired to shape more inclusive, joyful and healthier cities for all.

Full programme coming soon
