Grouchy old men?
Abstract
With the numbers of older men increasing as the population ages, it is not only important to get a better understanding of their health and social care needs, but equally as important to challenge the perceptions that exist of who they are and how they relate to the world. Nowhere is this more important than in relation to their emotional health and well‐being. In this article, Toby Williamson looks at some of these challenges and describes a Mental Health Foundation project that is attempting to address these issues.
