Diverse Cymru has been commissioned by the Welsh Government to conduct independent research into crimes against older people (anyone aged 50+). We have gathered views from members of the public as well as experts in the field. The project aims to increase understanding and awareness of crimes against older people.
Our research is complete and we’re proud to present our findings in our report titled ‘Age of Justice’. Please click below to download.
Report and Support
In Wales anyone aged 50 or above is considered to be an older person. Crimes against an older person can take many forms and can have an effect on anyone. No one should go through it alone, no matter what the situation.
