About SPARC/KT-EQUAL Membership

Who can be involved with SPARC/KT-EQUAL activities?

Whilst funding for SPARC has ceased, SPARC continues to operate and will do so until its successor KT-EQUAL is fully established. SPARC/KT-EQUAL is an inclusive research-orientated activity open to all those individuals and organisations with an interest in improving the quality of life of older people and disabled people through research, policy and practice. Whilst SPARC/KT-EQUAL provides a platform for research supported by EPSRC and BBSRC this is not to the exclusion of work supported by other organisations. Indeed the participation of those involved with such work is valued very highly.

To join the Network and receive regular updates about its activities please become a member by registering below:

The SPARC Story

Welcome to SPARC and KT-EQUAL: Knowledge Transfer for Extending Quality Life

SPARC brings together researchers, practitioners and policy makers in ageing. It specialises in communicating the latest design, engineering and biological ageing-related research to all stakeholders, making the case about the benefits for an ageing population of scientific research, and it encourages new blood into ageing research. Although funding for SPARC ended in December 2008, SPARC is continuing to function from the University of Reading within a new initiative - KT-EQUAL which commenced in January 2009. Soon KT-EQUAL will have its own website but for the time being news and information about SPARC and KT-EQUAL events are being handled by the SPARC website.
