The session will look at the impact on the NHS Pension with regards to both the tapered Annual Allowance and the ongoing age discrimination court ruling. We will also discuss the options available for early retirement. The session will include an open Q&A session.

Overview

The NHS Pension can be complex to understand. The forever changing taxation environment can put a lot of people off retirement planning at all.

Retirement will be a big part of all our lives and so it is essential to keep up to date with the scheme and plan properly for the retirement you deserve. Many people are aware the Annual Allowance rules changed for the better in April 2020, but most are yet to understand and realise the impact on their pension. Also, although this is a constantly moving piece, the recent age discrimination court ruling will have a huge impact on most members’ NHS Pensions. There are a wealth of options and it can be difficult to know which you should pick.

We will do our best to inform you on how the NHS Pension Scheme works, the recent changes and what you need in order to retire at a reasonable age.
