A recent Guardian survey found that 69% of women arts professionals said their age had negatively affected their career success - rising to 100% among those working in artistic roles.

This is unacceptable! We know all too well that the issue isn't a lack of talented older women. It's a sector that too often overlooks older women's stories and voices.

Getting older should not mean getting fewer opportunities.

Older women are making work. They are developing ideas, taking risks, leading projects and bringing decades of experience to their practice. We see it every day at Moving Memory, and we must make more space for that.

We promise to continue challenging ageism by putting older women centre stage - as artists, collaborators and creative people with work to make and things to say. đź’›
