Episode 10: The Rt Hon Damian Green on Ageism, Employment, and Social Care

I'm back with another enlightening episode of Nothing but a Number! Each week features engaging conversations with guests where we break down the barriers of age and explore the stories of fascinating guests from all walks of life. This week, I am delighted to speak with Damien Green, the former MP for Ashford, who brings valuable insights on the challenges and opportunities of living longer. We discuss the realities of ageism in employment, the importance of policies around pensions and housing for older people, and the growing issue of loneliness. Damien also reflects on how society hasn’t fully adjusted to longer life expectancies, and the need for a more inclusive approach to employment for older individuals, including initiatives like jobs fairs. Tune in as we touch on the critical need for appropriate social care and housing budgets to support older adults. Plus, Damien offers some sage advice to his younger self, including the importance of preserving privacy. Do get in touch or comment to share your thoughts!
