ANNE RING BIOGRAPHY
I am the 83-year-old author of the 2022 book Engaging with Ageing: What matters as we grow older, which is a one-stop guide to ageing well. In writing it, I drew on an extensive professional and personal knowledge base about growing older, and old in order to challenge the stigma of old age, with a fresh and realistically positive approach that acts as a reader’s travel guide to navigating how they choose to age. And it aims to empower its readers – both women and men – to explore how they will be old rather than how old they are.
