Research participants needed

For some older individuals from minority ethnic groups, later life comes with higher risk of low financial resources. This study will explore factors affecting pension protection among current and future generations of older individuals. At the end of the project, we aim to provide policy-relevant insights into how individuals from these communities can be better supported to prepare financially for later life.

1. Photography training session

2. Photo-taking activity

3. Conversation with a researcher
