We regularly hear that accessing health and social care are the top priorities for older people across Scotland. Thanks to @scotgov Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Care @neilcgray MSP for visiting us to learn more about people's experiences and how they can be improved.

The Chancellor's decision to means-test the Winter Fuel Payment will come as a blow to many pensioners in Scotland struggling on low incomes.
Our helpline can carry out a free benefits check to make sure you're getting all the support you are entitled to.

@ellieokwilson I am in awe of you. Your bravery, resilience and composure during this whole process is nothing short of inspirational. Thank-you. We edge just a little closer to a judicial system that doesn’t deliberately and strategically put women and not the accused in the dock.

We were concerned to find that in our #BigSurvey that only 8% of over 50s are satisfied politicians treat older people’s issues well. To help strengthen older people's voices, we've been campaigning for a Commissioner for Older People in Scotland.

This week is UK #FallsAwarenessWeek, so we've published an article on the @agescotland blog highlighting free resources individuals and older people's services can use to learn about and take action on falls. https://t.co/WlI0uKtLb0

A great opportunity to engage with members of @nhsggcchc and introduce them to @agescotland resources for supporting older people's health and wellbeing.

On #InternationalWomansDay let’s stop penalising women for the unpaid but vital contribution they make out with of the workplace and close the pension pay gap #IWDPensionGap
