The Women Against State Pension Inequality (WASPI) campaign has called for a resolution to the injustice faced by women born in the 1950s as thousands face losing the Winter Fuel Payment
The Women Against State Pension Inequality campaign has criticised the Government's recent efforts to increase Pension Credit uptake, demanding a solution to the unfair treatment of women born in the 1950s.
The campaign aims to spread awareness and increase claims for Pension Credit, which from this year will also automatically passport eligible pensioners to receive the Winter Fuel Payment. "We need to see equal drive in government to understand and implement the recommendations both of the independent parliamentary ombudsman and the cross-party pensions select committee."
