An invaluable resource for anyone involved in the care or support of older LGBT people, as well as students and researchers in the health and social work fields. This book explores the lives and perspectives of older lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people. As their distinct needs are often overlooked due to lack of understanding, this book demonstrates how life course approaches can offer insights into their support needs as they grow older, from housing and health care to community support.
