Save the Date! Full program coming soon!

This event is co-hosted by HSPRI and the School of Policy Studies

Please join us for this year's symposium featuring a series of expert mini-talks and panel discussion on Aging in Communities. Capping off the event is the annual Dr. Duncan G. Sinclair Lectureship in Health Services and Policy Research featuring Paul McGarry. 

Consider joining us for lunch at 12PM for an opportunity to connect with others in the field of health services and policy research immediately following the lecture.

Paul McGarry is Head of the Greater Manchester Ageing Hub and Assistant Director in the Public Service Reform Directorate at the Greater Manchester Combined Authority. A specialist in ageing policy since 1997, he helped establish the Age-Friendly Manchester Programme and has been central to Greater Manchester’s development as a leading age-friendly region. He is a founding member of both the WHO Global Network and the UK Network of Age-Friendly Cities and Communities, contributing to national and international collaboration on healthy and inclusive ageing.

We hope you can join us for what is sure to be a great series of discussions!
