A new survey of over 2,000 Brits has found that people are considered 'old' at the age of 69. This is a shift from previous studies, which suggested old age begins as early as 62. The survey, conducted by Seven Seas, quizzed British adults about when they think ageing really starts. The results vary across generations, with Gen Z perceiving old age to start earlier than Baby Boomers. Gen Z believes people start experiencing cognitive decline at 62 and struggle to adapt to technology at 59. The Age Without Limits campaign highlights the issue of ageism and its impact on society.
