What is the reality of ageism in London? We need your voice
London is the UK’s fastest ageing city, yet ageism remains one of the most overlooked forms of discrimination and it can have a huge impact on people's lives. Whether it’s being dismissed at work, overlooked in healthcare, or stereotyped in everyday conversation, ageism affects thousands of older Londoners in ways that are often invisible.
What is ageism?
Ageism is when people are treated unfairly due to their age. It can be subtle or overt, like being told you “look young for your age” or “you are too old to understand technology.” It can show up at the doctor’s surgery, in the workplace, or even in casual interactions. Sometimes, people don’t even realise it’s happening.
