Additional information
Professor Karl Pillemer, the internationally recognised expert on elder abuse, will talk about the prevention of abuse in the context of the UK national study – a two year project carried out by the Institute of Gerontology and Social Care Workforce Research Unit at King’s and the National Centre for Social Research. Karl has been academic adviser to the research, which will be launched the day before by the funders, Comic Relief and the Department of Health. We are sure that what Karl will have to say on the Friday will be very interesting!
