Downsizing can be one of life’s most emotionally and practically challenging transitions—especially for older adults. And especially for the busy family members who are trying to help, but with their own lives, jobs, and kids to wrangle! Whether moving to a smaller home, a care setting, or into a relative’s house, there’s a lot to manage. Fortunately, there are thoughtful ways to make the process smoother, more compassionate, and more effective. Welcome to episode 5 of the Age and Stage podcast with Daisy McAndrew and Annabel James. In this episode we speak to Meirion Shaw, founder of The Homemover Specialist, about decluttering and downsizing. Find it here: https://lnkd.in/dMiehqy7

Age and Stage episode 2 this week is What makes good care? Daisy and I were so pleased to speak with Stephen Burke about how to choose the best care - whether that's care at home or a care home. What questions should you ask a care provider and what should you look out for? What help is available from the Local Authority? And of course, the cost of care. Thank you for listening, subscribing and sharing. We're very keen to stay up the charts! https://lnkd.in/e8FfcDMU #elderlycare #socialcare #ageandstage #podcast #laterlife
