100 Years. 100 Good Ideas
100 Years 100 Good Ideas - from inspiration to action
Sharing the themes and ideas we want to take forward
Earlier this year we asked you for your brightest, boldest ideas to help people live happy, healthy and more independent lives as they age.
The response was phenomenal - over 250 ideas were submitted from residents, colleagues, universities, start-ups and supporters across the UK and beyond.
Our Innovation Team has now worked hand-in-hand with St Monica Trust’s senior leaders to read, review and refine every suggestion. We’re excited to share the emerging themes and hear your feedback before we move into testing and delivery.
WHY come along?
- See which ideas have made the shortlist
- Learn how you can get involved in
- Co-production, trials and Living Lab projects celebrate the creativity of our community and help shape the next 100 years.
WHO is invited?
Residents, families, colleagues and registered volunteers - everyone with a passion for learning, innovation and improvement.
WHAT if I can't make it?
You can visit our webpage where we will publish the full list once the Resident Roadshows are complete. We are also aiming to host regular Innovation ‘drop in’ days in the following months.
IS it too late to submit?
Whilst we have technically now closed for submissions, we are always keen to hear your ideas for how we can innovate for the future – please come along and share your thoughts or email us (details below).

Hoppiness at St Monica Trust
The St Monica Trust first opened its doors to residents in 1925 at what was then the St Monica Home of Rest on Cote Lane. One hundred years of St Monica Trust seemed like something worth raising a glass to. To celebrate this, we want to grow hops and brew our own centenary beer, co-produced from beginning to end with our residents.
