Would you like to be part of a club where you can access discounts galore? A club which offers savings on travel, entertainment and even boring stuff such as insurance? If you’re 65 or over, congratulations because you’re already a member!
A world of later life discounts is out there, all you need to do is look. And while we all love a bargain, it’s not just about the savings. They embody a collective recognition of the invaluable contributions made by you; rewarding you with potential life experiences now you finally have time to get out and enjoy them! Don’t be shy; make sure you apply.
We’ve put together this handy Stiltz Homelifts guide to the discounts available across travel, leisure and health. What are you waiting for?
If you’re no longer working all hours make some time to get out and about. Let’s start with the most famous freebie of them all – the bus pass. It’s yours for the taking when you reach state pension age, just apply via your local council offices or through their website.
There’s also the Senior National Railcard and a Coach Card meaning you’re going places for a fraction of the price. Mini-breaks, spa weekends, or a week walking in the country are suddenly affordable and within reach again. So, get those suitcases packed pronto!
Taking time out for fun or culture can come at a price so here are some affordable cultural incentives to hopefully entice you out.
Cinema has undergone a renaissance in recent years; swanky seats, bars, and fine food are replacing popcorn and cola. The main chains – Vue, Empire, Showcase, and Odeon all offer something for seniors as do many of the smaller independent venues. The Everyman also serves cake and a drink, so no excuses for not seeing all the latest Oscar-winner or one of the more esoteric offerings.
Theatres nationwide provide seniors’ discounts, even the National Theatre in London and the Royal Shakespeare Company take part. The National Trust, English Heritage, and RHS always serve up a great day out, each with its own discount system in place. It’s the same with museums and art galleries across the UK; just remember to look before you book.
Leisure centres are a social hub for active seniors with many taking the opportunity to attend dance and aquarobics classes. Some centres even offer specialist personal trainers for those who want to increase muscle strength. Using leisure centre facilities off-peak can provide a less frenetic experience, and some even have spa facilities, perfect for mid-week indulgence.
Not very exciting, but most welcome are the free prescription charges which come into effect when one reaches the age of 60. A YouGov study shows a fifth of over 60s take more than five prescription drugs, so it’s a huge saving for many people. You can also book a free annual eye test to keep your well-being in good shape.
Stiltz Homelifts also provides invaluable freedom and exceptional value for money. This newfound freedom of having a domestic lift in the home comes from living well without the worry of using the stairs, while finding value in the savings compared to expensive, later-living apartments.
Join the Stiltz club and enjoy the benefits – we’d love to have you as a member.
Easy to arrange lots of information, No problems with fitting, payment taken in stages, last payment when job was completed. Everyone was friendly from start to finish.
My experience with Stiltz Homelifts. Just over a month ago, I had my Stiltz lift installed and I am so pleased with it. The workmen that came and fitted it were very professional and knew what they were doing. They were so professional I would not hesitate to recommend Stiltz lifts to anybody.
Great looking product, knowledgeable sales people, fitters work clean quickly and polite. Definitely recommend.
Great stylist lift, had for six months without a hitch. Installed by company staff not subcontractors. Cannot fault the lift, buying experience, installation, service. Good company ethos and made in UK.
From the very beginning with the initial construction to the finished product. I have never seen such polite men with an equal work ethic. They cleaned as they went each day. The pets were never in harm. The finished product is awesome. Couldn’t be more pleased
Excellent from beginning to end – and beyond.
Everybody we dealt with at Stiltz was very helpful and efficient, from the initial meeting with Nick Sale, the sales rep, thorough technical inspection, the builders, installers, plumber, electrician, and excellent follow up service and attention. My husband’s life is transformed and mine is much easier. Thank you Stiltz.
Elegant lift, promptly installed by careful and tidy fitters who removed their rubbish the following day. A fair price and an envied addition to our home.
I have been astounded and gratified by the levels of service we have received from every member of the Stiltz teams we have dealt with. A superb lift with exceptional service!
An excellent company from the first contact to the completed project. All personnel were friendly and very polite but stayed extremely professional throughout. Having been in the construction industry for over 40 years I was aware the preparation work was carried out to a high standard by the best of trades people. The lift itself can not be faulted both the operation and aesthetics.
The service was better than 1st class. It was excellent in every way. We could not be more pleased with everything Stiltz applied it’s self to in any way. We would award 6 stars at the very least.
Home lifts are a modern alternative to stairlifts, offering reliability, speed, capacity, and seamless aesthetic integration for a stylish and efficient solution.
