I AM writing to thank you and your readers for helping to make the first International Year of Older Persons such a success.
The number of over 60s will double in the next few decades, making ageing one of the most important issues of the next millennium, and something that I hope your readers will celebrate.
SARAH BERGER, (Manager, UK Secretariat, International Year of Older Persons), c/o Age Concern England, London Road, London SW16.
