Project 5: Focus 50+

Focus 50+  explored the experiences of people over 50 participating in social enterprise activities, and the effect of those experiences on aspects of their health and wellbeing.  Working with three partner organisations - LifeCare, Lingo Flamingo and Orbiston Neighbourhood Centre – we conducted interviews, observations and design thinking workshops to better understand the ability of social enterprises to achieve their mission and to capture the experience of those involved in the process. Focus 50+ began in June 2015 and finished in May 2017.
