Will started out life in the NHS, seeing firsthand the problems faced by people over fifty: declining independence, mobility and strength, with seemingly no one available to help them. The people Will saw were fed up of being told to accept the fact they can no longer enjoy their hobbies, and fed up of being given more pain pills or being told it's "just due to your age".
