New Experiences in Later Life
What new experiences have you tried in retirement?
Why not do something new – possibly something you’ve
always wanted to do in life, but never got round to.
It could be a single achievement like driving a
formula 1 car, sky diving, or white water rafting, or it could be
something you incorporate into your new life in retirement such as a
new sport or activity, visiting an exotic destination or trying
online dating (if you are single!).
Or how about unleashing that creative streak -
writing a book, getting into politics, starting your own business,
or doing a part time job that’s completely different to what you did
in your career?
Or how about getting together with others to start a new joint
interest activity – anything from wine tasting, to theatre trips, to
a ‘riotous retirement’ club?
Later life is a time of unlimited opportunity! What are you going to
experience?
Your ideas
These are just a few thoughts; we want to hear about

Or if you are just getting going we want to
encourage you to use your imagination.
What next?
The Challenge is all about sharing our ideas, so
we would like you to tell us

or you are doing in retirement which may help to
