title: Age and ageing: an overview.
abstract: Europe is ageing, as exemplified by the UK population where, in the foreseeable future, more people will be over than under age 50: industry appears slow to recognise and appreciate all that older workers still have to offer: bundling them off into early retirement wastes precious talents. Memory difficulty is not an inevitable part of ageing.
