The Eldest Elder

  • By Lisa Fuller

Don Anderson, a member of the Birmingham 1000 Elders, celebrated his 100th birthday at the end of January. Centenarian Don celebrated his big day in style with a party for friends and family, and Professor Janet Lord went along to wish him well.

Happy Birthday, Don, we hope you enjoyed your cake!

Medical Research Council Versus Arthritis Centre for Musculoskeletal Ageing Research

We are funded by the Medical Research Council and Versus Arthritis, we are a Centre of Excellence in Musculoskeletal (MSK) Ageing Research. We are integrating and expanding complementary research and postgraduate training activity of the two leading Midlands based Universities, the University of Birmingham and the University of Nottingham, together with their associated NHS hospital trusts.

Versus Arthritis came to life in September 2018 as a result of the merger of two of UK’s largest arthritis charities – Arthritis Research UK and Arthritis Care
