Call You and Yours: Ageing Villages

Does it matter if rural England could soon be mainly populated by pensioners? Should anything be done about it?

Do you live in a grey-pocket, a place where younger people can't afford to live?

The National Housing Federation is warning that house prices in many English villages are starting to push all but older residents out. If that's your village, how did it happen and what is it like? How is community life changing, and is some change needed?

Are you concerned about the idea of dozens of new cheaper homes being built near you? Are you concerned at the lack of younger people and families in your community?
