Description
Did you know that, in the UK, there are now more people aged 60 and over than there are under 18? Or that, by the year 2050, the number of 80-year-olds in the UK will have quadrupled? Our population is ageing, and this has implications for everyone; young and old. This book will guide you through the spectrum of issues associated with ageing, exploring topics such as age discrimination, age-related health concerns and the cost of ageing. The information inside comes from a variety of sources, including newspapers, magazines, government reports and charity groups; providing different perspectives on challenging topics. At the end of each chapter is a selection of activities, designed to encourage interaction, literacy and critical thinking. Content is accessible and engaging, tailored primarily towards the 11 to 14 age group.†
