We know that social connection plays a big role in mental and physical health, but we still don?t fully understand how positive experiences lead to long-term benefits. That?s why we’ve launched the DASH: Daily Activities, Social Events, and Health study, to better understand what helps older adults stay healthy and resilient. We?re especially interested in how things like appreciating positive moments, staying socially connected, and being physically active can support coping with daily challenges to promote healthy ageing, ultimately leading to a longer life.
