Abstract

The English countryside is changing. It is now widely recognised that rural communities contain a higher proportion of older people than urban and suburban areas. Older people are a dynamic force in English rural life, making an increasingly important contribution to local economies, and the cultural and social welfare of their communities. This book is intended to help inform the policy agenda for rural areas in the 21st century. It provides a timely contribution to the ongoing debate on how rural communities are experiencing demographic ageing, and the experience, contributions and needs of the varied groups which make up the older rural population.
