AnnotationWithin the next three of four decades, older people will outnumber the young for the first time. This may well bring social issues such as the funding of pensions, housing and healthcare to the fore. This paper presented at the launch of the Foresight Ageing Population Panel's consultation paper "The age shift" explores the demographic and economic profile of older people, highlighting trends and projections. The author looks at older people's lifestyles, opinions, attitudes and values, citing findings from MORI and other published surveys. (RH).
