Description
In this programme we look at three people over seventy and consider the differences in the way they live. Growing older involves making adjustments, for instance changing family relationships and ...changing social and financial circumstances. Each person has a unique set of circumstances and different people have different ways of adjusting to change and managing their lives. Jessie lives in Liverpool in a flat over a dis-used garage and has problems with mobility and access to her flat. Eric and Ivy live in neighbouring flats on an estate in Milton Keynes; Downs Barn.
