More affordable housing for pensioners

Infographic containing statistics regarding housing affordability for pensioners

It’s very simple. We need more affordable housing for pensioners. The numbers don’t lie. With 1 in 3 Australian pensioners living below the poverty line and paying up to 90% of their pension on rent we are on the verge of a crisis.

And it’s time to for us to take action to prevent it.

Jesus sees the value in us all. Young and old, rich and poor. Tragically, our current society has a tendency to put profits before people. That’s why I’m asking you to stand with me and demand more affordable housing for pensioners.

Make pensioners housing affordability a priority

Join me and sign my petition asking NSW Minister for Social Housing, Pru Goward, to create more affordable housing for pensioners.

Anglicare’s housing for pensioners

At Anglicare we are taking steps to provide affordable housing for pensioners with projects in Chippendale, Penrith and Windsor that provide affordable community living for pensioners.

These projects alone are not going to solve the crisis!
Action needs to be taken at a policy level.

The public and government need to be more aware of the situation and steps must be taken to right this wrong. If you believe that our pensioners should be respected and looked after, please, sign and share my petition today.
