» Ageism is stereotyping and discriminating against individuals or groups on the basis of their age.
» Most seniors are mentally and physically active regardless of age with a great deal to contribute. However, societal norms marginalize seniors, treat them with disrespect, make them feel unwelcome and otherwise generalize as if they were all the same.
» Ageism is discrimination or unfair treatment based on a person’s age. It can impact on someone’s confidence, job prospects, financial situation and quality of life.
» Age discrimination is often not taken as seriously as other forms of discrimination. However, it can have the same economic, social and psychological impact as any other form of discrimination.
Older people may experience: » Losing a job because of their age. » Being refused interest-free credit, a new credit card, car insurance or travel insurance because of their age. » Receiving a lower quality of service in a shop or restaurant because of the organization's attitude to older people.
» Not being eligible for benefits such as Disability Living Allowance due to age limits. » Being refused a referral from a doctor to a consultant because you are ‘too old’. » Being refused membership to a club or trade association because of your age.
» To combat ageism it is necessary to raise public awareness about its existence and to dispel common stereotypes and misperceptions about aging.
» At the same time, ageism can be combated through inclusive planning and design which reflects the circumstances of persons of all ages to the greatest extent possible.
