BRHS cohort participants were invited for a further follow-up $40 years after their original recruitment into the study. The cohort participants completed a detailed postal questionnaire (July–December 2018) and a physical examination (August 2018–January 2019) when aged 78–98 years. At the beginning of the study (1978–80), 7270 (94%) men were employed (including being in the armed forces); whereas in 2018, of the remaining participants 3.8%(vs 5.8% at 2010–12) reported spending any time in paid work. Transitioning from work to retirement or unemployment in later life presents major challenges including, but not limited to, financial insecurity 5, 6 and social isolation, 7 which increase in prevalence with age. Unlike other studies of older old adults, 8 the BRHS has distinctively captured this period of the adult life course from middle age into very old ages, with detailed information related to social, behavioural and biological factors in community-dwelling men. 9 Thus, the Study has evolved accordingly to focus on issues that are more relevant to older adults. Furthermore, the longitudinal collection of objective and subjective measures since 1978–80 represents a rich dataset that is available for research to identify risk factors for chronic diseases and mortality and to explore behavioural and social factors related to healthy ageing among the surviving cohort (n ¼ 1633; Figure 1). For participants who are absent from the examination and questionnaire surveys, health information is available from GP records and mortality.
