Celebrities say 'enough is enough'
See what our celebrity supporters have said to help end elder abuse.
| 'More people need to be aware of the devastating effects that elder abuse has on older people and their families. Everyone has a responsibility to look out for their parents, grandparents and any older people they know.' Esther Rantzen CBE |
 |
'It’s important that older people feel they can come forward and speak out. It’s been a taboo subject for so long that many feel afraid to report mistreatment. The public have a huge role to play in looking out for older people they know, especially if they think they are being mistreated. Enough is enough.' Fiona Phillips |
 |
'Think of the amazing things many older people have done throughout their lives and they are repaid with derision and discourtesy! Join Help the Aged to fight for older people's rights to a dignified life. It's time we gave them the respect they deserve. Enough is enough.' Miriam Margolyes |
 |
'Most people do not think of older people being abused. However, everyone needs to be aware about the ways in which older people may be harmed and what to do if they suspect or know that this is happening. Enough is enough.' Shobna Gulati |
