It's really worrying that so many older people are still not receiving the financial help that they are entitled to.

Despite the government's efforts to tackle fuel poverty, many older people will be anxious about their fuel costs and some will choose between heating and eating.

Not one more older person should suffer undignified, inequitable or disconnected healthcare.

The government must not squander this golden opportunity to radically reform the pensions system.

With predictions of more price increases next winter, the government must act now to make sure pensioners have enough money in their pockets to cover basic living costs.

As we get older, bereavement, illness, physical impairments, as well as living far away from family members, could cause any one of us to be isolated - which can lead to loneliness and ill health in older people.
