Clarification on TV licence concession

RECENT article (Royal joins pensions warning, October 21) suggested people over the age of 65 are eligible for a free TV licence.

I wanted to clarify for the benefit of your readers that free licences are actually available to those ages 75 or over. Short-term licences are also available for anyone aged 74.

Readers can find more information about the concession and how to apply at www.tvlicensing.co.uk/over75. Deborah King TV Licensing, Belfast BT1
