OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected to start before the end of Hilary Term to allow all future events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed on the Staff Gateway and via email to identified OxTalks users.

Older people tend to be represented as a homogeneous group with similar needs. However, research indicates that those older people with the greatest social care needs are from the least privileged groups and tend to rely more on family-based and/or state care than their more affluent counterparts. This ‘conversation’ will look at how social class shapes the experience of old age, especially the need for, and access to, social care. It will also consider how other bases of inequality – such as gender and ethnicity – inform the quality of care received, and identify future lines of relevant research.
The presentation will be followed by an open discussion.
This event is open to everyone but registration is required. To register to attend, please follow the link and complete the online form: weblearn.ox.ac.uk/direct/eval-evaluation/13517
