Ageing Society
We will harness the power of innovation to help meet the needs of an ageing society.
The UK population is ageing, as it is across the industrialised world. The prospect of longer lives will require people to plan their careers and retirement differently. Ageing populations will create new demands for technologies, products and services, including new care technologies, new housing models and innovative savings products for retirement. We have an obligation to help our older citizens lead independent, fulfilled lives, continuing to contribute to society.
If we succeed, we will create an economy which works for everyone, regardless of age.
