Abstract: Between February and July 2008 six focus groups of older people were conducted in six locations across Barnet. The participants in the focus groups were either regular attendees at day centres or older people groups which met regularly. The aim of the study was to identify the unmet needs of older people across the Borough. The focus groups identified that need was felt across many domains of older peoples’ lives, including health and access to health care, exercise and responsibility for one’s own well-being, access to information, companionship, transport and the home environment.
