The homes that millions of older people live in put them at serious risk of injuries, ill-health and even death. We want action so that everybody’s home can be made safe.
People aged over 50 who lose their jobs are significantly more likely to fall in to long-term unemployment than other age groups. We want to make sure people receive the right support to get back into work.
Ageism affects people of all ages, but it can limit people’s lives profoundly as they get older. We want society to view older age in a much more positive and realistic way.
We want people to be supported to maintain their muscle strength and balance as they grow older, helping them to remain healthy and reducing their risk of disability and falls.
