The UK’s Ageing Population (Case Study for AS) In 2005, 16% of the population of the UK was over the age of 65, which could increase to 25% by 2041. The ageing population is caused by an increasing life expectancy and dropping birth rate, which is caused by a number of factors. This is starting to cause many problems, including poverty and increased pressure on health services.

consequences for the decreasing death rate and one major consequence of this is the ageing population. The UK date rate refers to the overall number of deaths per year.

Pros and Cons of An Aeging Population An ageing population can be useful to society in some areas of development but at the same time it is argued that it can also cause a considerable amount of strain to the working class and hinder government expenditure. For instance, in Britain the increase in of people over 60 is estimated to rise by 40% in the next 30 years and 13 million people are estimated to be over 65 in 2030, which in effect will be putting more strain on the government as this is
