This Pension scheme is regarded as one of the best available. It is a final salary scheme which provides a full range of benefits for you and your family and is transferable to and from other local authorities.
For every contribution you make, the Council makes a contribution too. Because of this the cost to you is just six pence for every pound you earn - even less if yo upay tax and National Insurance.
You can look forward to a guaranteed package of benefits to enjoy when you retire, including:
a tax free lump sum of up to one and a half times your pay
a regular income for life with up to half your pay which will go up every year in line with prices.
