dc.description.abstractThe pandemic exposed the loss of human rights of older and disabled people and illustrated the critical commonalities these two groups have. As sociologists with personal and professional experience of ageing and disability, we were concerned with the proliferation of such “care-less” spaces (Rogers, 2017) and wanted to explore what could be learnt. Considering the general population's positive trajectory in increased life expectancy, not enough has been written about experiences of ageing with, and into, disability. This Research Topic brings together a range of epistemological and methodological perspectives in five papers to understand how to situate a better future of care.
