Cost of Living Survey
Published on 03 October 2022 05:22 AM
Age UK is increasingly concerned about how the rising cost of living is affecting older people on low and modest incomes.
Household energy prices are going up by an average of 54% and are expected to rise further in the Autumn. Inflation hit 6.2% in February 2022 and is set to go even higher. However, the State Pension and benefits are only due to rise by 3.1%.
Most people on low and modest incomes will not be able to make ends meet without more Government support.
Please complete our survey, to give us your opinions, concerns and feedback (link below). Paper copies are available.
The survey closes on 31 December 2022.
