A woman says she has been forced to sell her home and live in a motorhome because of the change in state pension age.

The woman, named Linda, said she can no longer afford to live in her “beautiful retirement flat” and has “never been able to catch up” from getting her pension when she should have done.

She spoke of her experience during an LBC phone-in with Shelagh Fogarty on Thursday (21 March).
