Research for older people

Through our research we hope to improve your care.

NSFT is leading on several innovative research projects for older people. We aim to support the holistic needs of older people living with dementia, anxiety or depression. We also specialise in finding out about family carers or supporters. We have specific research looking at how we can better support carers of older people.

Some recent work has included the development of online support packages for family carers. We are also exploring factors which help people’s quality of life and independent living. We are also part of ‘Join Dementia Research’. This means we can offer national and international research opportunities to people living in Norfolk and Suffolk.
