No hearing aid grants for women affected by Marriage Bar

There’s something I would like to see put right for myself and a group of women who are now in their 80s and 90s (I call them the forgotten women). They are women who were robbed of their careers because they got married. This was because of the Marriage Bar, and under its provisions, female public servants who got married were forced to resign.
