If we aim to provide better health and social care services for older people, we need to get away from one-dimensional approaches that do not look beyond age or illness and disability. At this session we present early findings from a 3-year study on Socially Inclusive Ageing across the Life-course (SIAL).

Our focus is on three groups of older people that are sometimes overlooked:

• People ageing with a lifelong disability or significant health condition
• People from racially minoritised ethnic groups
• People who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual and/or trans LGBTQ+

We will explain what we can learn about these groups from large-scale surveys. We will also present spoken word, video and text clips from interviews we have carried out with older people about ageing and their experience of health and social care services.

We will explore the complexities of aspects of identity including ethnicity, sexuality, gender identity and age. We want to help practitioners in health, social care and allied professions understand how identity affects inequalities and how we can use this understanding to develop the kinds of services older people from minority groups tell us they want.
