What does it mean for lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans people to grow old in Suffolk?

Research shows that many become ‘invisible’, with significant implications for their well-being. Age UK Suffolk, NSFT and Suffolk LGB&T network invite you to learn more about these issues and consider how we can improve services for everyone. A showing of the film Age Silent will be followed by a panel discussion with the opportunity for audience members to join in.
