Should 'INACTIVE' over-50s go back to work?Problem Lionel is that according to Government, anyone over 65 does not need to be able to be driven or drive, therefore they do not need to be given Motability Allowance of any kind. To get my husband around we have had to buy a second hand motabilty wheelchair accessible vehicle for £8500, as there was no help from government at all. When asked, by my MP, the Secretary for Works and Pensions, said that anyone over the age of 60 should have enough savings to get them to retirement when they have been disabled.ViewDate:

Should 'INACTIVE' over-50s go back to work?My husband, who is 71, was disabled at the age of 70. He would love to be able to go back to some kind of employment BUT as he is OVER 65 he cannot access motability allowance, PIP or disabled person allowance, therefore there is no way that he could get into a place of work
