| Annotation | The impact of London's ageing population on public services is examined with regard to the needs and values of older people themselves. That the proportion of older people in London is markedly smaller than for other areas of the UK does not mean that their needs are no less complex. Tenure differences between inner and outer London point to the importance of strategic planning - such as the Supporting People programme - in meeting housing needs. Employment, voluntary work and active involvement in civic life are other factors considered in this article, which is based on a discussion at an Association of London Government (ALG) seminar on 25 June 2004.
