| Annotation | Unless older people are able to further their skills and learn new ones, there is a danger that they will become increasingly excluded from society. With more than one third of older people saying they feel out of touch with modern life, Help the Aged calls for all Government departments to recognise that older people need skills to play an active role in society. This publication uses examples of projects demonstrating four types of skills necessary for preventing older people from becoming isolated or socially excluded: financial literacy, health literacy, citizenship literacy and technological literacy.
