One has to be in receipt of a State old age pension to avail of most of those benefits. That's why it is important to try to secure some kind of social welfare old age pension, be it, contributory, non-contributory or pro-rata. Even if one is only getting a couple of Euro a week it opens the door for availing of the "freebies". Actually,(just thinking) theyre' not really "freebies" they are relative to the social welfare contributions which one has paid.
I should qualify this by saying that the reduce golf fees, sports fees, etc. are the exception to the above rule.
