Annotation | The range of different usages of the term "older people" - used in the broader sense to include over 50s, or those of state pensionable age - are reflected in the data sources used to inform this paper. Older people's needs are important because of issues such as age discrimination and rationing of services, or because the case should be made that older people are not all the same. The following key policy areas affecting older people's needs are examined: income; health; community and social care; carers; transport; consumer services and needs; housing; crime; employment; the challenge of leisure time; and politics and older people. Other information sources are suggested. (RH). |
