Closed petition Give the state pension to terminally ill people at early age

Closed on

I’ve paid into the pension since 1976 and I’ve now got only a few years to live. I’m 58 now, but can’t get my pension. Who gets it when I die? The government. This is not fair.

I’ve got motor neurone disease. I’ve no life because I have no memories to create with my partner and 16 year old daughter, because I have no free money left to do this. Getting my pension early would be a great help.
