Pension scheme guides

 
The Local Goverment Pension Scheme (LGPS) guides below will tell you more about the benefits that are available to you when you join the Local Government Pension Scheme.

They explain how the scheme works, what it costs to join and the coverage that the scheme can give you when you retire. There is a guide for employees and Councillors, a guide to increasing your pension benefits, and a guide for people in civil partnerships.
