Georgina Akers, regional sales and marketing director for McCarthy and Stone South East, said: “We want to shout about the amazing feats retirees have achieved in their lifetime and shine a light on the wonderfully colourful lives of today’s older people. We know that many over 60s have fantastic stories to tell, so over the next few weeks we are calling on all those in West Sussex to talk to their parents and grandparents, find out what they have done in their lives and tell us all about it – so we can give them the credit they deserve.”

TV and radio personality, Gloria Hunniford is lending her support to Inspirational Generation campaign and will be judging the shortlisted entries.
