Our Group CEO and Government Business Champion for Older Workers co-chaired a roundtable with @GuyOpperman and leading employer groups to address the pressing issue of 50+ employment.

The outcome was clear: we must prioritise inclusive recruitment and re/training for all.

⚡️ BREAKING: #Iran football team captain defies regime, backs protests: “We have to accept that conditions in our country are not right & our people are not happy. They should know that we are with them. And we support them. And we sympathize with them regarding the conditions.”

This is the real experience of people juggling work and care. We rely on them, but don’t support them.

@GregClarkMP @Dawid1 @brightchickMB @clentonF Without the support of Paid Carers Leave the carer is having to save Annual Leave, and being financially worse off unable to ensure a pension for their future security

One of the things that I love about the longevity space is that everyone in it celebrates the others. Having #phoenixinights and @ILCUK working together is a great example

[Mary Bright @brightchickMB]

#carers we care so much and it seems we are cared about so little.

[James Coney @jimconey]

Last week I outted myself- as a middle class benefit claimant. I described how I was terrified of potential Tory cuts.

So I've been encouraged to write more 1/🧵
