Pensions and Social Support

At some point in life, almost everyone relies on social support, whether as a pensioner, a new parent or a person living with a disability. This section shows how many people receive pensions and how large they are, how pensions compare with wages, and how many pensioners keep working.

It also covers family benefits and childcare allowances, emergency aid, the number of people with disabilities, and care homes for older people and people with disabilities.
