“Britain’s population time-bomb: The challenges and opportunities of an ageing society”
Britain’s 17 million baby boomers are fast approaching retirement age, with over 65’s now outnumbering under 16’s for the first time. What are the challenges and opportunities that this presents Britain?
An expert panel including Rosie Winterton MP, George Magnus and chaired by Channel 4 News presenter Samira Ahmed will explore issues such as the changing nature of retirement; the importance of older people in the workforce; the pressures on public services; and how Britain should be adapting to an ageing society.
