We need to remember that the people caught up in the Windrush Scandal have given their working lives to our country, often in the NHS , the Armed Forces or other public services. It’s high time everyone affected received the justice they are due' .independent.co.uk/news/uk/britis…

Whether you need help getting out of bed, staying active, seeing friends, or something different, a life without the right care and support can be debilitating.

The future Government must act on this without delay.

We’re almost at 35,000 signatures on our petition calling for a Commissioner for Older People and Aging!

Older people need a voice for the challenges of later life and bring solutions for us all as we age.

Help us reach our goal: campaigns.ageuk.org.uk/page/141369/pe…

Chancellor Jeremy Hunt told the Express: “I am totally committed to the triple lock, which is increasing the state pension by 8.5% next month - worth £900. Our track record is clear: we stand square behind Britain's pensioners.”
