The Freebird Club is a new travel-based social network for older adults, enabling positive connected ageing via ‘social travel’ and homestays. Operating as a social enterprise, it offers peer-to-peer social engagement and travel/hosting opportunities for people over 50. By creating this community for older adults, The Freebird Club provides a whole new way of travelling, a potential new source of sustainable income, and a fun and accessible way to meet new people and enjoy companionship as we get older. Freebird is a membership club, whereby member hosts can make spare rooms available to fellow member guests to come and stay for a nightly rate. Thus they can unlock some of the asset value in their homes when they most need it, and make some new friends in the process. By enabling older adults to travel, socialise and earn money in new ways, The Freebird Club seek to enhance and enrich the quality of later life.
