Kate Harries has opened something called the Nana cafe in Hackney, east London.   It is run by older ladies from the local area serving home cooked food and beverages.

What a brilliant idea!
To engage older people in their local community, to allow them to meet others like them and others in the community and to create a business idea which empowers older people rather than make them feel like a burden.
