Best websites for UK seniors

Welcome to Over 60s Discounts and our first blog post! Whilst we’re dedicated to helping over 60s save money, with an amazing range of top offers at leading brands for our members to benefit from, we want this site to be about more than just providing great deals.

Our blog will showcase articles and guides across a whole host of relevant topics for our readers to (hopefully!) enjoy. To kick off, we have trawled the internet to track down amazing content specifically tailored for UK seniors, just for you.

Whilst we’ve discovered that finding content specifically for the over 60s is quite a challenge (that’s an article for another day), we’re delighted to share below our favourite websites for UK seniors. These sites cover a broad range of topics and all provide insightful information, inspiration or a sense of community for their readers, offering authentic perspectives from individuals at a similar stage in their life.
