I’m really proud of Hourglass (Safer Ageing) support to the BBC EastEnders storyline of the sexual abuse of older women.
Abuse has no age limit and it is indiscriminate.
Hourglass (Safer Ageing) is the only UK charity dedicated to tackling the abuse of older people. Support is available 👇
Hourglass is proud to have been consulted for this new #Eastenders storyline.
The sexual abuse of older people is seldom seen on mainstream television and we’re glad to see BBC EastEnders shine the spotlight on this devastating form of abuse.
Today we’re proud to bring you our biggest research project yet, the #SaferAgeing Index for England, funded by the Hallmark Foundation
Here’s what we found about #SaferAgeing in England ⬇️(1/8)
