AnnotationSWOOP is a regional partnership of agencies and organisations based at the University of Exeter that provides guidance, support and programmes to employers and individuals regarding older people's employability. SWOOP is part-funded by the European Social Fund (ESF) under the EQUAL Community Initiative Programme and by the South West of England Regional Development Agency. The overall objective of the SWOOP employers' projects was to challenge and inform employers' attitudes to age discrimination. This paper outlines the three programmes working with different groups: Employer Action Working Sets (managers and personnel officers); Broker-Age (intermediaries); and Experience Matters" (older employees). (RH).
