Between 2015 and 2021, the Beyond 60 research project (B60) involved a total of 239 local people, exploring two questions, What is it like to retire and age in our village? and How do we learn from, and feel about, 60+ life?  in North Muskham, a Village Community in the English East Midlands.

The academic research is long complete, documented in my thesis, Becoming Older, Being Well, and accepted in 2021 for the award of PhD by the University of Lincoln. Reflecting the local community focus that the B60 research itself adopted, I have been using this web/blog to profile issues that the research led me to. 

Recently the site has focused on local  Neighbourhood Planning issues, most notably the recent Great North Road Solar Park  (GNRSP) proposal. 

My neglected blog is where I intend to do more in the near future.
