So ageing presents some formidable challenges, particularly with regard to the way we end our lives, but for Beard it would be a mistake to let the last years define the issue as a whole. “Yes, we need to make sure that long-term and palliative care is accessible for those who need it at the end of life,” he says. “But we also need to reinvent the way we think about ageing itself. We want to be stretching life in the middle, not just at the end. This means keeping people healthy for as long as possible, and giving them the opportunity to do the things they want and that society needs.”
