Audio clips: older people talk about safety

These clips are extracted from a set of conversations, in which older participants talk about aspects of safety that matter to them. In the conversations we reflect back on the findings of the research, and draw out elements of significance to each older person. The clips might be used to support teaching and training, and to start conversations amongst groups of older people, carers and/or health and social care practitioners.

The older people involved have heard and approved the publication of these clips. There are small gaps in some of the recordings where identifiable information etc. has been removed.
