Tom recently attended a performance of ours in Limerick.
He is working on an interesting project that can help bring together and inform arts organizations working with older people in the UK,Ireland and US.
Tom Makin-Bell currently lives in Norfolk UK. For the last ten years he has worked for various charities providing services for older people in UK. His specialism is the development of partnerships and services for the benefit of older people.
In February 2010, he was awarded a Winston Churchill Memorial Trust Travel Fellowship to travel to Ireland and USA to investigate the provision of arts and creative activities for older people. His wish is to better understand the differences in policy, research, funding, development and delivery of arts and creative activities for older people between UK, Ireland and USA. His investigation will be summarized and published in a report via Winston Churchill Memorial Trust.
