The Welfare State is perhaps the biggest social policy success of the post-war generation. This century our lives have become increasingly individualised as the nation-state is dwarfed by Big Tech, global inequality and challenges like climate change.

Our ARK Ageing Programme invites you to hear speaker Dr Eve Worth (University of Exeter) discuss whether the welfare state is worth saving, and what role each generation can play in maintaining social cohesion in a time of insecurity and hyper-individualisation.

Refreshments will be available from 9.15am.

Places are free, but must be booked in advance on this registration form.
