BGS (British Geriatrics Society) has co-signed research funders' statement on inclusion of older people in medical and societal research.

“Health and care research is crucial in ensuring that older people get the best quality care. Older people, who often live with long-term conditions such as frailty and dementia, have been underserved by research for too long, and it is time that this changed,” said Professor Miles Witham, BSG Vice President for Research and Academic Affairs.

New analysis has revealed record numbers of extremely long waits for older patients in 2024, in some cases 16 times worse than only six years ago.

Meanwhile, people aged 80 to 89 have a 16 percent chance of enduring extreme waits, and the likelihood rises to 19 percent for those aged 90 and above. In comparison, the average likelihood of patients aged 18 to 29 experiencing a 12-hour wait last year was just 2.2 percent.

Dessert can do more than delight. As taste and smell change, thoughtful sweets help maintain energy, protein and hydration. Think protein-rich puddings, fortified sponge with thick custard, smooth rice pudding and small milkshakes between meals. Simple tweaks keep favourites comforting, safe and nourishing.

Age UK Norwich has celebrated its 80th anniversary, commemorating with a series of events and exhibitions to mark the occasion.

Formed on 27 April 1945, as the Second World War neared its end, the Norwich Older People’s Welfare Committee was created by local leaders and volunteers as a response to the food shortages and difficult living conditions faced by many older people, to contribute towards a better and fairer society.

Over the years, the committee’s community work and services for local older people continued to grow, until it eventually became the hub of support that Age UK Norwich is today.

In just over a year, the organisation has helped over 1,500 people, reused 2,300 care items, including wheelchairs, walking frames and hospital beds, delivered 44 community activities like companionship tea parties, and awarded 16 hardship grants.
