Politicians don’t care enough about people of my age or background. 18-24 79% 65+ 74% Society doesn’t value me enough because of my age. 18-24 69% 65+ 48% The perception that politicians do not care about people of their age or background is held commonly across generations — and is particularly strongly felt amongst the under 35s. This is matched by a high percentage of people who felt that society does not value them because of their age. This is strong across all ages at an average of 58% – but is most striking in the age 18-24 age bracket. Both of these statistics demonstrate there is a conscious correlation across generations that their age, not only how they are viewed, but also how they are valued by society. Therefore, age-neutrality is important for both ends of the age spectrum. <strong>Intergenerational</strong> Design Principles
