| Annotation | The conference was the first ever national conference on the sexual abuse of older people. Its aims were: to suggest what practitioners need to know about the normal sexuality of older people; to offer lessons to be learned from the abuse of adults with learning disabilities; to define sexual abuse and the particular implications for older people; to describe the current law and options for reform; and to consider the particular support needs of older victims. Two further papers considered "Longcare", and the police perspective of sexual abuse. (RH). |
