Thank you Iain, this is very relevant to me as my niche is targeted at empty nesters who fall into this age bracket.
Thank you Iain. I too am in the UK and I will be talking about living with chronic illness, which affects all ages of course but particularly as we get older. I had no idea these websites even existed.
Cheers Cath xx
There's probably more sites out there which I haven't discover. Thank you for choosing such a worthwhile subject to talk about. All the best
This will be really useful to my niche which is women over the age of 50 so thanks so much for sharing this. I am also in the UK, so completely relevant to me :)
May be I should start writing a blog for men over 50, although my site does embrace both sexes. Best wishes.
