The UK’s unsung older heroes have appeared on plaques alongside some of the country’s most historical figures, including famous names from Birmingham, as part of a campaign tackling ageism.   The new plaques, created by leading home care company Home Instead, appeared overnight hung next to existing plaques at locations in Birmingham, London, Manchester, Edinburgh, Cardiff and Belfast.   The honours have been created to highlight the unique contribution made to society by extraordinary elderly people who were put forward by friends and family after a nationwide callout.
