  • Valuing Older People - The Mayor of London’s Older People Strategy
    26/05/2008
    This is a strategy for London’s older people but also for all of London. It will promote stronger, more sustainable communities and recognise the role that older people have to play in promoting the health and well-being of London. This strategy sets out actions that aim to make a difference to the lives of all older people living in London. In particular I want to challenge negative perceptions and promote the contribution of older people, take action on pensions and income, promote good quality health and social care and support those valuable community services which can make so much difference to older people’s lives.

    This is a summary of report published by University of Derby, Institute of Guidance Studies, 2005.The report argues that current policy relating to older adults is essentially piecemeal and reactive in nature, and sees older adults mainly as passive consumers of state services. The need is for carefully considered policy decisions that are part of an overarching and ‘joined-up’ national strategy aimed at proactively involving many more adults aged 50+ as active contributors to the national economy and to their local communities. High-quality lifelong learning and guidance provision are essential elements. Settings: Residence for Older People
