Welcome to the 2025 edition of the Trustee Report, providing you with an update on the latest changes that may impact your pension and equipping you with helpful information for planning your retirement.
This issue is packed with guidance to support every stage of your pensions journey, from digital tools to make managing your pension easier, to reminders about protecting your loved ones and staying safe from scams. You’ll also find an update on the Pensions Dashboards Programme, and the Guaranteed Minimum Pension equalisation project, alongside some opportunities for those nearing retirement to learn more through the Aviva Pre-Retirement Seminars.
We’re also encouraging members with Defined Contribution benefits in the Plan to take a fresh look at their pension through our new initiative, Explore It… Don’t Ignore It, a campaign launched following the nationwide campaign, Pay Your Pension Some Attention. This is designed to help you feel more confident in your pension decisions, starting with simple steps you can take today
