According to a survey conducted in the first quarter of 2025, disabled and self-employed people were the demographic groups in the United Kingdom with the lowest levels of retirement savings. ** percent of disabled people had less than the minimum retirement savings and thus were at risk of not being able to cover basic needs when they retire. Individuals who were non-disabled, white, not LGBTQ+, aged 30 to 39, and working full-time were more likely to report comfortable or moderate retirement lifestyles. The largest differences were observed across disability status, sexual and gender orientation, and employment type.
