A Short Guide to Growing Older

Do many of us sit down before retirement and talk about what the change in our lives might mean? For that matter, do any of us realise what real old age might involve until it is upon us?

Few of us seem to visualise what it might be like growing older, or what we might do to prepare ourselves for the time when we may become less physically active or have fewer interests to occupy us.

A Short Guide to Growing Older is a concise and inspiring guide by Rosemary Sassoon to encourage readers to live the best that they can do in their later years.

The book covers planning for your future, harnessing your creativity, getting involved in new business or social activities, volunteering and connecting with the community, the benefits of recording family history, no longer getting old but 'being old' and then finally, decision time.
