Ian Rothwell interviews Joanne Welch the Campaign Director for the Back to 60 for 50's Women. Joanne explains that women who were to get their pension at 60 have been made to wait until 66 when changes to the state pension were made, It has left all 1950’s women helpless and unsure of where to turn or what to do. The aftermath of this government decision, lead to a small group of women which has grown in number coming together to demand the return of their earned dues. #Backto60 was born which now has 723,500 supporters. Several peer groups representing 50’s women are now coming together to form the ‘ONE VOICE’ movement. www.backto60.com. 15/5/2018
