Scottish Pensioners' Forum

WHO ARE WE?

The Scottish Pensioners’ Forum was set up in 1992 as an umbrella organisation for groups and individuals working and campaigning for a better deal for older people.

OUR BACKGROUND

The Forum was initiated by the STUC Pensioners Committee as a "national" body, to allow pensioners to speak on behalf of pensioners and was set up after discussion with bodies such as Help the Aged, Age Concern and the Scottish Old Age Pensions Association (now Scottish Pensions Association)

OUR AIM

To advance pensioners’ rights and welfare and to educate and unite Scottish pensioners, in order to present a collective voice to Government and other authorities, on matters affecting retired people.
