Gordon Lishman Quotations

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.

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

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.

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.

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

Choosing a home that can be adapted to meet your future needs in the event of illness or reduced mobility should also be considered.
