Further to the letter last week from Graham Martin, of Age Concern, not all over 60s have received a reduction! I am over 60 and now I have to pay 37.5 per cent more to enter the gym in Withycombe Village Road as off peak benefits have been withdrawn.

I am over 60 and now I have to pay 37.5 per cent more to enter the gym in Withycombe Village Road as 'off peak' benefits have been withdrawn.
Am I subsidising other pensioners? As I am not in Devon for the whole year, it is not economical for me to receive a discount.
On a commercial level, I would have thought that by reducing prices to all, there would be a need for more staff, not the rumoured reduction in staff.
