13th February 2024We're a group of researchers from University College London working on a study called ENHANCE. Our goal is to support older people in improving their brain health through positive lifestyle changes. In the past, we tested brain training apps at the Tower Hamlet's Carer's Centre. Now, we're focusing on lifestyle apps and would like your feedback on some videos for our study.
We need your help to create a fun and easy-to-use mobile app that encourages positive lifestyle changes. We're looking for people over 50, and as a thank you for your time, we'll provide a £20 voucher.
