Over 70 organisations are supporting our campaign for a Commissioner for Older People and Ageing. Many older people aren’t having the retirement they’d hoped for, and so we’re asking the Government to establish a Commissioner. They would raise awareness of the long-term challenges older people face, and bring together government departments to make change happen. Show your support by adding your name to our campaign.

With 150,000 older people living in poverty in Scotland, it’s time for a renewed focus on pensioner poverty. Through the voices of 38 people in later life, our new report details the reality of living in poverty for older people in Scotland. In it, we call on the Scottish Government to take action to reduce poverty in later life and set out our recommendations for change.
