NEW BOOK: COVID-19, INEQUALITY AND OLDER PEOPLE: EVERYDAY LIFE DURING THE PANDEMIC
COVID-19, INEQUALITY AND OLDER PEOPLE: EVERYDAY LIFE DURING THE PANDEMIC Camilla Lewis, Chris Phillipson, Sophie Yarker and Luciana Lang

This new book explores the impact of COVID-19 on older people and the organisations working to support them. Through first-hand accounts and interviews, it exposes the isolating impact of social distancing and argues that the pandemic intensified pre-existing inequalities in the UK. As well as shedding light on these issues, the book provides a number of recommendations for developing community-centred strategies to deal with future COVID-19 pandemics.

The book is available todownload Open Access on Bristol University Press Digital.
