What does it mean to grow older as a lesbian, gay, bisexual or
trans (LGBT) person? What gaps in knowledge about LGBT ageing
remain? This timely and innovative book reports on a project funded
by the Economic and Social Research Council which aimed to address
gaps in knowledge about older LGBT people and their experiences of
ageing. The book discusses the project and contains chapters either
specially commissioned or written by leading researchers and
activists in the field. Informed by a range of theoretical
perspectives, empirical research studies, critical observations as
well as lived experiences, this book explores areas of LGBT ageing
that have been under-studied. These include: bisexual ageing; trans
ageing and older trans people's mental health; ethnicity, culture
and religion in the lives of older LGBT people and gaps in
knowledge about older LGBT people from minority ethnic communities;
intergenerational networks; residential and end-of-life care; and
the effects of austerity on services. Written in an accessible
style, this book is essential for researchers and policy makers
interested in the lives of older LGBT people, people who work with
older people and teachers and students interested in ageing, gender
identity and sexuality.
