A new SBRI competition from InnovateUK, the UK’s innovation agency has launched and is offering up to £3million in funding to social ventures to provide innovative solutions to address Healthy Ageing’s “seven themes of ageing”, including creating healthy active places, maintaining health at work or supporting social connections.
