Roger was Professor of Social Care at Lancaster University, has written numerous academic books on ageing and social care, and has spoken publicly (including on BBC Radio 4’s Woman’s Hour) about the topic. He organises a University of the Third Age (U3A) local history group; started Creative Arts workshops and cinema screenings for people living with dementia; and set up the first university-validated course for older people to train as researchers.
