Further reading
This section of the website contains a list of books, reports, articles, and a few videos, about older LGBT people. It is substantially based on the bibliography on the Polari website.

- General issues in LGBT ageing
- Black and minority ethnic (BAME) LGBT people
- Care homes and extra care housing
- Carers and families
- Dementia
- Disability
- Discrimination and prejudice
- Health
- LGBT histories – 20th to 21st centuries
- Housing
- Lesbians
- Psychology, mental health and wellbeing
- Social and economic context
- Social work and social care
- Substance abuse and alcoholism
- Trans issues
- Videos
- and finally a complete list of all our further reading items.
