The handbook accompanies films made as part of an ESRC funded participatory research project on well-being in older age. The research was carried out by a team of older people, university researchers and a voluntary sector manager. The handbook provides detailed explanations of the issues explored through the acted scenarios. It also lists questions that can used to reflect more on these issues, and suggests where you can go for more information. (Edited publisher abstract)

The pack is aimed at wing-based prison staff, disability liaison officers and peer support workers so that they can implement good practice ideas and set up activities where they work. It is made up of four main sections: background to what it is like being an older person in prison; health and healthy ageing; good practice ideas, focusing on improvements that can be made to the prison environment, activities, health and social care and resettlement. The last section provides information and advice, which includes useful contact details. All sections can be removed and photocopied. The pack also includes two resource and activity discs. The pack updates a previous version originally published in 2005.
