Free Public Lecture - Lancaster University

What might Social and Health Care look like in 2025?

Government predictions suggest that the number of people aged over 75 will rise 35% by 2025. Many people will remain healthy and independent as they get older, but an increased number will need additional support at a time when the country as a whole is struggling to meet the existing needs of the population. Funding, resources and ways of working have become important political, social and health challenges.

A keynote talk from Professor David Croisdale-Appleby OBE will set the scene before a panel discussion asks the question: what will public and professional health and social care look like less than 10 years from now, and what new solutions are required?

You can book your place by calling 01524 592190.

Date: Wednesday 8th November 2017 Time: 6.30pm - 8pm. Doors at 6pm Venue: LICA Building, Lancaster University, LA1 4YD Format:    Keynote talk and panel discussion, with opportunities for Q&A. Complimentary refreshments will be served before and after the lecture.
