Calling All Pensioners
Magazine programme with Tim Hamilton, addressing issues which affect pensioners across London. This week: our reminder of the annual February fundraising appeal from Resonance FM, a non-profit, ad-free, 24/7 independent radio station and a broadcaster like no other. The National Pensioners Convention (NPC) on beating digital poverty which could save thousands of lives and transform millions more if we act now - its winter deaths demo is set for March 2024. Independent Age has news of their campaigning to end 'no-fault evictions'. Musical tributes are to Marlena Shaw, aged 84, and who was an American jazz, blues, soul and disco singer, and to Chita Rivera, aged 91, and who was an American actress, singer and dancer. Produced by Deptford Action Group for the Elderly. [Repeats Sunday 2pm.]
