Recent economic events have brought our work into sharp focus. The spiraling costs of essential services and food have the greatest impact on the eldest members of our community. Pensions are a fixed income that do not allow for 'disposable income' or 'luxuries'. In fact, without savings or other income, the oldest members of UK society are really struggling to meet even basic needs.
When prices go up steadily - let alone so sharply as has been the case recently - and income fails to grow in relative terms or even remains the same, greater numbers of our elderly, swallow their pride and ask for help.
