Migrants for example have less comprehensive to the benefits of a welfare state compared with the indigenous residents of the UK. Older residents of a community also experience exclusion in terms of mobility access and the availability of support. In this lecture a diversity of groups are presented in terms of the umbrella term inclusion. It is argued their encounters with inclusion vary as 'suits' their positionality within a society's hierarchy of moral, social and political norms.
