Physical and mental health: > Co-morbidities and ageing prematurely - Cardiovascular disease - Diabetes - Arthritis > Long term effects of medication? > Poor mental health - Long-term diagnosed - Older gay and bisexual men

Social care: > High level of social care need - Lack of specialist services > HIV related stigma in care / housing - Homophobia > Increased isolation and loneliness - Lack of confidence in mainstream support

Financial and housing needs: > Long-term unemployed with few savings > Unable to secure mortgages and pensions, or cashed in pensions early > Support from family may be less

Stigma and discrimination: > Underpins many of the problems people face! > HIV related stigma amongst peers > Disclosure and confidentiality

JIM’S STORY A 75 year old man living with HIV…

Jim’s story: “I wasn’t meant to live 6 months, and that was 21 years ago. “I was one of the lucky ones to survive the first panics. “It has been a hard struggle health wise.”

Jim’s story: “I think I was pretty unlucky to get Parkinson’s on top. “But people are much more sympathetic to the Parkinson’s than to the HIV.”

Jim’s story: Taking medication can be tough: > 17 pills a day Care and treatment is complex: > Multiple consultants > Poor co-ordination

Jim’s story: “Some of the symptoms and issues about ageing, Parkinson’s and HIV are interlocking and you can’t always distinguish… “I’d like my care to be coordinated by a geriatrician who has knowledge of HIV, the heart and other things.”

Jim’s story: Jim now lives in Sheltered Housing: > Wants more involvement in decisions > Has found a sense of community > But feels cut off from the wider community

Jim’s story: “I am very keen to keep on prodding out to the community. We look like a secret service building or prison, but we are actually quite nice and if you would like a cup of coffee come in and see us. So we are working away at that level. It is a hard slog.”

Jim’s story: As a gay man, Jim’s needs are not always met: > ‘Coming out’ > Lack of LGBT resources and information > Poor understanding of LGBT needs

Jim’s story: “There are a disproportionate number of retired and elderly gays who have no housing support and feel very lonely… there is a lack of thinking things through … for example there are no proper facilities at Gay Pride for the elderly… so I couldn’t go to Pride this year.”

What may help: > Human rights based approaches > Empowerment > Personalisation and integration > Training and awareness raising
