Welcome to the Living Longer Better Planning Tool
The Oxford Personalised Plan for Living Longer Better was launched at the Smart Ageing Summit 2025, representing a groundbreaking approach to healthy ageing that puts you firmly in the driver's seat of your own wellbeing journey.
This comprehensive programme empowers every individual to understand and strategically plan the actions they can take to regain lost fitness, reduce the risk of disease—including dementia—and fight back when illness does occur. More importantly, it provides the tools to minimise and actively change the harmful effects of our modern environment on our health and longevity.
The Power of Community Contribution
One of the key themes to emerge from this innovative approach is the recognition that older people themselves possess tremendous power to contribute meaningfully to their communities, including supporting younger members. In doing so, they not only enrich the lives of others but also derive profound personal benefits that enhance their own quality of life and sense of purpose.
The Oxford Elixir of Life
We believe that the Oxford Elixir of Life is knowledge—consumed through continuous learning and transformed into meaningful personal and community action. This planning tool encourages you to actively engage with the strategies and insights presented, taking notes on the specific actions you plan to implement.
As you explore the resources and guidance from our experts–among them Alan Nyman (invented) and OLP Co-founder Dr Paul Ch’en– you'll develop your own personal blueprint for living longer better—a practical, evidence-based roadmap tailored to your unique circumstances and aspirations.
Your journey towards a longer, healthier, and more fulfilling life begins here. Let's start planning your path to living longer better.
