All you need to know about marketing: WBE/OHAM. [Women Buy Everything/Oldies Have All the Money.] 10-person marketing exec team: 4 over age 60, 7 women. The world will be your oyster; you will be soooooo far ahead of the competition. (“All you need to know” is not a joke/throwaway line. It’s a “pay frigging attention” line.)

Until there is £ in the budget to support the fulfilling of these social prescriptions it’s just not a model I can support. #SocialPrescribingDay – at Stockport, England
Together with @lifeleisureuk, @AgeUKStockport, @ViaductCare and the Brinnington Health centre, we have started a new project to support social prescribing in Brinnington.
‘This report shows how ageism causes deep and lasting harm to people and society, directly and indirectly, exacerbating social divisions and inequalities and damaging our economy.’
Worth a read to see what recommendations it offers perhaps?

Not seen this programme but cannot on any level agree with assisted dying. It opens a door to euthanasia of the most vulnerable - no! – at Wales, United Kingdom
There is nothing ‘progressive’ about legalised assisted dying. It pushes vulnerable people to accept death instead of treatment. And it treats suicide as a cure for people’s problems. We should resist it, says @historykev

"When we are young, it’s the illusion of perfection that we fall in love with. As we age, it’s the humanness
that we fall in love with … Where we once saw imperfect scars, we now see evidence of a life fully lived."

“We’re often led to believe that getting older is in itself somehow a betrayal of our idealistic younger self, but sometimes I think it might be the other way around… time and life come along, and smash that sense of self into a million pieces.” @nickcave

Aim to learn new, cool stuff every day. Love meeting creative people and making things happen. Watch this space for @LifeFullColour1 & @evermore1st
“There is only one solution if old age is not to be an absurd parody of our former life, and that is to go on pursuing ends that give our existence a meaning – devotion to individuals, to groups, social, political, intellectual or creative work.” Beauvoir

From an interview I did with @TheGenderIndex I’ve always believed in living life to the full, keeping nothing back, using all my senses!

And another article addressing marketing to older people. Do you think they’re beginning to understand that women like our Founder @SaraMcKeeFRSA are not fading away, they starting up new businesses! @tom_peters @drbillthomas @JackiesRev2 @beccaanneJ

Great to see our friend @GeorgieLee68 featured with her latest research from The Commonland. Everyday Ageism is one of the last ‘isms’ that seems to be acceptable. Not to us, we believe ageing is a team sport! @drbillthomas @jeanette_leardi @thischairrocks

Falls may be masking other underlying illness - worth a trip to A&E as we recently discovered. The fall in question was due to a heart attack and low rate of under 40.
