| Annotation | Through its Speaking Up for Our Age initiative, Help the Aged has worked to harness the pool of experience and skills that older people can offer for the benefit of all. Contributors to this final issue of AGEToday newsletter consider examples of participation in citizenship. These include: political citizenship (voting); older ethnic minorities' engagement in the political process; older people's forums; the role of the Older People's Reference Group in shaping public policy; formal and informal volunteering; community self-help; older carers; and grandparenting.
