FACE-UP TO FRAILTY CAMPAIGN TOOLKIT

HOW CAN CONTRIBUTE TO THE CAMPAIGN

During the #faceuptofrailty campaign partners should develop materials (photos, narratives, videos, interviews, etc.) with people who would like to share their thoughts on frailty, or have experienced it, with their families and carers. Partners should also encourage the involvement of other organisations and entities in developing similar material.
