Hammersmith Irish Centre

On 3 October 1997 three hundred Irish elders from twenty London Boroughs attended a one-day conference, together with representative of fifteen Irish organisations, to consider the needs, concerns and interests of the London Irish elderly community. In a series of presentations and workshops, Irish elders, representatives of Irish organisations with strategic roles, and front line workers with Irish elders addressed issues around elders' information and service needs. Workshops on housing, social security benefits, Irish elders clubs and support groups, and returning to Ireland proved a popular and valuable way of allowing Irish elders themselves to define their needs.
