Annotation | This workshop explored the leisure activities available to active older people - those in their 70s and over. The opportunities discussed included: formal adult education classes; outreach classes; self-help groups; and the role of radio and television. The barriers to participation - obtaining information; motivation; costs; and transport and access - were discussed. The workshop focused on exploring the potential provided by sheltered/retirement housing schemes in promoting access to leisure activities. (RH). |
