Nilgosc are running a number of pension information sessions in January 2024. Each session will last approximately 90 minutes and will be delivered via MS Teams. The sessions are designed to assist members when planning for their future retirement. Each session covers the same topics from a different perspective, so there is no need to join more than one session.
