People can boost their pensions by £5,000 for just £800, says expert

The new State Pension rises by just 3.1 per cent on April 6, increasing it by £5.55 to £185.15 a week, assuming you get the full amount.

In real terms, that is a cut of £7.45 a week, or £388 a year, with inflation set to hit 7.25 percent, reports the Express.
