Webinars

Throughout 2024, Hourglass is hosting free webinars each month in collaboration with our partners, each one focusing on a different area around the abuse of older people.

We’re sharing our specialist knowledge, provoking insightful discussion and asking our panellists to offer their viewpoints on how we can prevent and stop the abuse of older people and work towards safer ageing.

The Sexual Abuse of Older People - 2025 Webinar

Thursday 23rd January from 12pm

In early 2024 we held a webinar on the sexual abuse of older people. Since then, we've seen the issue represented on mainstream television in EastEnders, new research projects revealing the extent of sexual abuse in hospitals and more.

While awareness may be rising, the sexual abuse of older people remains taboo and hidden in the shadows.

We'll be joined by frontline Hourglass staff, partners, academics and more to discuss what can be done to prevent the sexual abuse of older people, the support on offer and more.
