Participants needed for study on older adults managing money

Researchers at The University of Manchester are conducting a study to learn more about how older adults can be supported to manage their money.

This is a really important issue for many older adults and their families, but we know very little about how people are supported to manage their money, or what support people might find useful.

We would like to speak to people in Greater Manchester from the following categories about their experiences of this issue:

  • People aged 65 and over who are being supported by a partner/relative/friend to manage their money;
  • People aged 18 and over with experience of supporting an older adult to manage their money.

Your participation would involve an interview with the research team, lasting approximately one hour. We would like to learn more about how older adults can be supported to manage their money. We will not ask you to disclose any information about how much money you have, or any private information such as bank details. We are also not able to offer financial advice.

If you are interested in being involved in this research or would like to find out more, please contact Dr Alex Hall for further information:
