AnnotationThis paper explores the experiences and views of South Asian elders and their families living in Wolverhampton. It highlights cultural expectations and the challenges this community faces in terms of ageing and support needs. The paper forms part of a series of Perspectives commissioned to support the Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF) five-year research programme, A Better Life. The programme investigates what will improve quality of life for some of the most marginalised and least heard people in the UK - people with high support needs. (RH).
