Calling All Pensioners - 30 June 2025 (Age UK Shares Heatwave Advice)

Magazine programme with Tim Hamilton, addressing issues which affect pensioners across London. This week: Age UK shares helpful advice on staying cool in a heatwave. England-based pensioners’ charity, Independent Age, announces that Scotland will follow England and Wales, so that Scottish pensioners on an income of £35,000 or less a year are also set to get the winter fuel allowance restored this winter. Age UK warns that their latest research shows 1.6 million older carers are worried about whether they will be able to afford to keep caring. Our further musical tribute is to Brian Wilson, frontman and co-founder of the The Beach Boys. Plus, a further musical tribute to Kenneth Byles aka Junior Byles, Chubby or King Chubby, who was a Jamaican conscious roots reggae singer. Produced by Deptford Action Group for the Elderly.
