| Annotation | Learning can make a difference to older people's quality of life, both in the 'third age' of healthy active life, and the 'fourth age' of greater dependency. This report provides a framework for understanding the contribution of learning (of all kinds). It aims to help local authorities and their partners to review how well they are meeting the needs of all their older citizens, and provides a tool to consult with older people about how to improve what is available. It is based on what is known about the challenges that older people face as they age, their demands and hopes, and what promotes individual well-being. It presents the issues to consider when developing a strategy for older people's learning. (RH). |
