The Police Pension is notoriously complicated and making a badly informed decision to do with your pension could prove costly when you come to retire from the Service.

Metfriendly has people that know the ins and outs of the different Police Pension Schemes. Over years of helping Police Officers and Staff at our popular “Options” retirement seminars, we have experience in answering some frequently asked questions and dispelling some common myths around pensions.

Join us for an informative hour, joined by Paul Turpin – Metropolitan Police Federation Pension Lead and Region 8 Ill Health Retirement Adviser.

The event will be taking place via Microsoft Teams.  Please make sure you can access Microsoft Teams on the device you intend to use to watch the webinar.

The session will cover the following topics:

  • Topical questions and myths around the Police Pension using real-life case studies
  • Pension reform
  • “Underpin” calculations – what it is and how it affects you
  • The effects of Remedy since 1st October 2023
  • Understanding your pension statement
  • Scheme overview (all three schemes) and how they work together
  • Understanding when you can retire and what to expect (lump sum options)

“Your presenter was really good and explained what can be complicated and complex matters, in a simple and easy to understand format.” – an Options attendee

“For the first time I now have clarity and understanding. A weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I’m genuinely grateful for your input.” – an Options attendee
