MS TRANG’S MODEL:
The bar chart above illustrates the percentage of the UK’s aging population in 1985 and some expectations for the later 50 years.
Overall, the proportions of 65-year old people are estimated to rise in all five countries. Wales has been the highest percentage in both two periods while the lowest one has belonged to Northern Ireland.
As can be seen from the chart, Wales reached a peak of 16% in the proportion of over 65s in 1985 which was 1% higher than England and the UK at 15% for each. The third largest group was Scotland about 14% while the lowest was Northern Ireland at nearly 13%.
In 2035, all nations are predicted to increase dramatically in the percentage of old people aging 65 and over. Wales is going to dominate the top position by the figure is likely to go up to 26 per cent. However, a forecast of the biggest increases is possible to belong to Scotland and Northern Ireland where the figures of the elderly can be rocketed doubly to 25% and 23% respectively. The percentage of 65 over people is also getting 23% in England and the UK in 2035.
