Runnymede has launched a three year programme – funded by the Nationwide Foundation – researching black and minority ethnic (BME) older people and financial inclusion.

As part of this project, we are publishing two preliminary reports today on the future ethnic make up of older people in the UK and financial considerations around the decision to retire abroad.
