The Government is committed to protect the triple lock for pensioners, helping them with the cost of living and ensuring they get the security they deserve.
As such, from today, over 12.5 million pensioners will begin to receive the record state pension increase. What's even better news is that this will include nearly 14,000 pensioners across Carshalton and Wallington.
This inflation-busting increase is part of the Government's continued work to ensure that people across our communities have the support they need, and in the case of our pensioners, will make sure that they will not see their incomes devalued as the Conservative Government delivers on its five priorities including halving inflation.
I will continue to press colleagues across Government to ensure that support continues for those who need it. As always, if you have a problem or concern that I might be able to help with, then please get in touch!
