| Annotation | This paper is designed to contribute to the emerging knowledge on choice of housing and support for older lesbian, gay and bisexual (LGB) people. It is written by two younger LGB people who examine future possibilities and the perspectives of their generation. They look at the potential of personalisation in improving choice and control, and the importance of LGB people feeling safe to share their identity and life history, particularly for dementia. This paper is part of the Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF) Better Life research programme, which examines what needs to change so that older people, especially those with high support needs, can have 'a better life'.
