Join our exciting photo competition and share your unique perspective on retirement income, healthcare, and social care systems! We invite you to capture your thoughts, feelings, and experiences in pictures. There are no limits to your creativity, so let your imagination run wild. Show us what aspects of these systems you appreciate and what challenges you encounter. Whether through powerful images or creative visual narratives, your submissions will help us better understand how people truly feel about these crucial support systems as they age. Your photos will play a vital role in shedding light on the connections between pensions, healthcare, and elderly care, including care activities from social care, family, and friends, and will contribute to a broader conversation on how we can improve these systems for everyone. Your photos will be used for this project. Don’t miss this opportunity to make your voice heard through the power of photography and be a part of shaping the future of old-age support systems in the United Kingdom.
