Help Us, Somebody: The Demolition of the Elderly

'Help Us, Somebody: The Demolition of the Elderly', gives expression to the voices of elderly people, who are suffering the impact of 'urban regeneration'. The progress promised by politicians and developers hides a scandal of human damage. Evidence from current demolitions shows that few lessons have been learnt since previous, historical slum clearance programs, shattered the lives of countless elderly persons forced from their homes - and, even today, the impacts upon elderly people, forced to change their homes, are hardly recognised.
