Supporting Older LGBT+ People in Later Life
Published on 24 June 2025 03:24 PM
Later life can bring a range of challenges, and for many LGBT+ people, these challenges can look and feel different. From accessing care services to feeling safe, respected and understood, it’s important that everyone is treated with dignity and equality as they age.
Age UK has brought together a range of advice and information to help older LGBT+ people understand their rights and make sure those rights are upheld. This includes guidance around care homes, legal protections, discrimination, housing, and health and wellbeing.
At Age UK Bromley & Greenwich, we stand with our LGBT+ communities and want to make sure everyone feels supported, included and heard. If you or someone you know could benefit from this advice, please take a look and share it widely.
