Story

Forest Care’s 100-year-old resident Joy wins NAPA's 'Grow Old Disgracefully' Award for celebrating her 100th birthday in style on the back of a Harley Davidson with the Fukarwe Bikers, a Basingstoke-based motorcycle club! Joy and her family will forever treasure the memories of this special day. Seeing the wonderful effects this has brought to Joy we are fundraising for this charity to continue to fulfil life long dreams.

The National Activity Providers Association is the UK’s leading activity and engagement charity. We support care services to prioritise wellbeing and promote activity, arts and engagement. "NAPA is working to change how people think, feel, and act towards age and ageing by promoting the importance of positive ageing and supporting older people to take part in activities that defy ageism. NAPA defines it as, “The process of maintaining a positive attitude, feeling good about yourself, keeping fit and healthy, and engaging fully in meaning activity and engagement as you age.” Many cultures and societies maintain negative ideas about ageing. Positive ageing seeks to combat this negativity by promoting the positive aspects of ageing and later life. NAPA champions the importance of wellbeing, we are committed to providing opportunities for people to make the most of later life. Our Positive Ageing Campaign ‘Grow Old Disgracefully’, and the related ‘Living The Dream’ prize fund invites people to challenge ageist stereotypes and enable people to fulfil their dreams and ambitions. We encourage people of all ages to get involved and support the cause through volunteering, campaigning and fundraising with us.
