OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
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
