Ageism Definition.
Ageism is discrimination or unfair treatment based on a person's age.
Ageism, also called age discrimination, is when someone treats you unfairly because of your age. It can also include the way that older people are represented in the media, which can have a wider impact on the public's attitudes.
If you experience ageism, it can impact on your confidence, job prospects, financial situation and quality of life.
It's important that ageism is tackled to make sure that nobody loses out because of their age.
