I would like to thank those who helped to make Older People in Europe Month such a success during October.

The result was an extraordinary variety of events, some with a strong European theme, others putting older people in the spotlight.

Among the highlights was Age Concern, Hyndburn, publishing 'Wordstage,' a collection of poems by older people.
