Around two and a half thousand older residents across the borough are missing out on money they are entitled to because they haven’t claimed Pension Credit. Some £5.5 million is sitting unclaimed in Bury each year with an estimated 2362 of those that are eligible, aged 66 and over, not claiming.
A derelict site in Bury is to be transformed into specialist accommodation for older people including those with long-term conditions.
