The State pension is often the bedrock of retirement, with many looking forward to the moment they can retire. The sum can be claimed by those who have enough qualifying years on their National Insurance record.
Over half a million retired single women are relying upon the state pension alone, with experts warning this could be devastating given the cost of living crisis. The state pension is increasingly viewed as a safety net, with Britons being encouraged to make their own retirement provision - either through a workplace or private pension.
For some, however, this has not been possible, thus creating their reliance upon the state pension for retirement.
What can people do to reduce their reliance on the state pension?
