Vic Rayner, Executive Director, National Care Forum
“Ageing in Common is a unique opportunity for the UK care sector and the international commonwealth community to come together to tackle head on the challenges and opportunities of ageing across the globe. I am so excited by the diverse and interesting range of speakers and workshop leaders who will be sharing their insights and expertise, with a particular focus on key issues including Dementia, Human Rights and new models of working. I strongly recommend this event for providers who wish to be at the forefront of working together to identify the future of care for older people.”
Jane Ashcroft CBE, Chief Executive Anchor
“Our ageing population is both an international challenge and an international opportunity. The Commonwealth Elders’ Forum 16-18 April 2018 is bringing together some great minds and anyone with an interest in driving change should get involved.”
Professor Martin Green OBE, Chief Executive of Care England
“The 21st Century has seen a significant demographic change, and all countries have ageing populations. This is fabulous achievement, and a real opportunity for Commonwealth Nations to come together, to share experiences and build truly Age neutral societies, which recognise the interdependence of generations and respect all ages”
Andrew Larpent OBE Chairman CommonAge
“Population ageing is a challenge to all Commonwealth countries. Until now the rights, needs and contributions of older people in too many Commonwealth countries have been neglected or marginalised. This has to change and we need your help. Join our movement, and help us lead the change, at the Commonwealth Elders’ Forum 16-18 April 2018.”
