This purpose of this booklet is to illustrate some of the good ideas and practices that have already been introduced, or are being planned, in the provision of services for elderly people in hospital, community and the home. The information was collected in preparation for an exhibition and conference held at the Hospital Centre. The summaries, many of them direct quotations from the replies of the authorities concerned, have been classified under several headings. There are also included at the end notes prepared by a number of leading voluntary organisations describing the services they provide for the care of the elderly.
