    📝 The UK government's #PensionsCommission interim report - it's encouraging to see CPC-CG research referenced and acknowledged in the report, which sets out the challenges that the UK's #pensions system is facing to 2050.

    The report cites research led by CPC-CG Co-Director Professor Maria Evandrou, which shows that policies encouraging #older adults to remain in #employment are in direct conflict with the rising reliance on informal #carers to provide #socialcare.
