I believe that older people are one of the most wonderful cohorts of people on the planet - but somewhere along the way we’ve lost sight of this. We need to turn this around, not just because older people deserve better, but also because doing so would make the world a better place for all of us. I believe such a significant cultural shift requires a broad range of strategies. Strategies are needed to encourage every Australian to roll up their sleeves, embrace their own ageing and rethink their interactions with older people. This is work Celebrate Ageing is focused on. 
​Dr Catherine Barrett, Director and Founder of Celebrate Ageing Ltd
