Our renewed focus
We're here to challenge ageism and discrimination and tackle the inequalities that exist in older age. We will focus our resources on the critical areas of health and care, loneliness and poverty and concentrate our efforts where we will have the greatest impact and reach.
Time to grieve
Now more than ever, the government must make sure that emotional support following a bereavement is available to all who need it.
Whether it's information and advice, counselling, support groups or online forums, we want to see a range of emotional support available to people across England. Sign our open letter and join our call to fix bereavement support here.
Our COVID-19 report
Our new report, Home Truths: Experiences of people in later life during COVID-19, outlines the enormous impact the pandemic has had on people in later life. The report highlights our findings from our three supporter surveys and outlines our recommended policy solutions. Find out more here.
Pension Credit
Pension Credit provides extra weekly income to people who have reached State Pension age and live on a low income. People who claim may also be entitled to other benefits. Visit our money information pages to find out more.
Since 2019 we've been campaigning for the Government to ensure that everyone who is entitled to Pension Credit receives it. Find out more about our Credit where it's due campaign & how you can help.
