With life expectancy increasing steadily over the years, statistics suggest that the number of centenarians has risen by 72% over the past 10 years. This is just one of the many reasons why, as a society, we can't rely on the professionals to reduce mental and physical decline in the elderly, as many older citizens just aren't in care. Subsequently, they run the risk of social isolation, a very common problem that can lead to loneliness and depression, as well as physical ill-health. This book therefore illustrates a crucially important broader narrative: that it takes a community - from the youngest to the oldest - to help the elderly make the most of later life. It is especially aimed at helping younger people understand older people and how to engage with them, so that when parents, grandmas, granddads, spouses and any other family member grows older, they can play a part in their lives without awkwardness, embarrassment and ultimately, without regret. By focusing on key milestones from the cradle to the grave to underline the worth of the elderly and their humanity, 'The Wheel of Life' aims to reduce the risk of isolation in older people and help improve their care, ensuring that life holds interest for them, that they're carefree and free to enjoy time with neighbours, friends and family. You'll also find in this book several engaging as well as stimulating suggestions and activities, proven to prevent isolation and foster lives worth living for senior citizens. By connecting generations, friends and families in an effort to combat loneliness in older people, 'The Wheel of Life' will help give you the keys that can not only transform the quality of life for the elderly, but also help transform how each of us relate to them. And it will empower so many of us with the confidence to engage with the elderly in fun, meaningful and creative ways.
