“Last week saw the launch of “Designing for the Future”, a student design competition sponsored by The Future Perfect Company which encourages students to consider the challenges affecting our ageing population – and to create innovative and attractive designs which allow older people to continue to live meaningful, enjoyable and independent lives.

The winner will receive a package of mentoring and support to help them to develop their products and ideas further and emulate the success of previous award winning “Designing for the Future” alumni. For more information, visit http://arts.brighton.ac.uk/projects/designing-for-the-future”
