Over 50? It’s time to avoid retirement regret

With the headlines around the cost-of-living crisis and inflation, we’re all thinking carefully about how we make use of our money and it’s important not to forget about your future retirement planning provision.

As a Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) member we want to ensure you are aware that you have access to the Council’s Shared Cost Additional Voluntary Contribution (Shared Cost AVC) scheme.

Our partners AVC Wise have a NEW webinar topic to help members closer to retirement realise the potential of this unique employee benefit.

This 45-minute session will highlight how no matter how long you pay into the scheme, you can still make a difference to your retirement:
