Read the original article on express.co.uk (opens in a new tab)The Daily Express reports a joint Age UK and Independent Age report saying billions of pounds in pension credit, attendance allowance, carer's allowance and housing benefit go unclaimed by older people, and the report's call for a Government take-up strategy. It names the charities behind the warning, quotes both of their leaders and gives the Department for Work and Pensions space to reply. Nothing in it misleads the reader.
“A new report by Age UK and Independent Age has unveiled a blueprint for the Government aimed at increasing take-up of key benefits.”
The Express names the two charities behind the report early, so the reader knows whose warning and whose figures these are.
“according to official figures”
The poverty figure is attributed to its source rather than stated bare, and it is kept separate from the charities' estimates.
“A Department for Work and Pensions spokesperson said: “We are working hard to get benefits to those who are entitled to them.”
The Express gives the Government department being asked to act a clear, attributed reply, so the reader hears both the charities and the DWP.
