Age Concern have a page specifically for LGBT people, but it is rather disappointingthat hey really seem to believe that...
Many of the issues in this guide relate to planning for later life will of course be very similar whether you are gay or heterosexual. However‚ there are some things that might need different attention. On the positive side‚ this is because the legal context is changing in a mainly very helpful way in relation to gay people. On the negative side‚ there may be some difficulties you are facing in relation to others’ assumptions or prejudices that could require a distinct approach.
Because there is some truth in the fact that some of the advice you may need as an older LGB person would come from the same sources, below is Age Concern's LGBT web page address for publications and Resources, most of which are outside Bristol. http://www.ageconcern.org.uk/AgeConcern/publications-resources.asp
We hope to bring you more LGB-specific links, as we source them. please email us all and any information you have that you think we should list in these pages.
