How we can help you
Why is it important to you that we exist?
Forces Pension Society’s rigorous work on behalf of all ranks and their dependants in all Services is unique. No other organisation campaigns on its Members’ behalf for improvements to Armed Forces Pension Schemes; fights to correct inequities in existing schemes or deals with Members’ pension issues week in and week out through our Pensions Helpline. Unless you are a qualified pensions expert, the complex nature of the Armed Forces Pension Schemes coupled with people’s changing circumstances, needs explanation and guidance.
When you join Forces Pension Society, whether you have a Navy Pension, an Army Pension or an RAF Pension, you are assured of receiving advice to help you get the best pension to which you are entitled. Our advice could save you and your dependants a great deal of time and money and needless hassle.
Even if you are not in need of pension advice right now, joining Forces Pension Society gives you discounts on a wide range of products and services from healthcare to holidays. And your subscription helps to support our activities as an independent not-for-profit organisation.
We also have a resource enabling us to deliver group presentations nationwide. Please see Forces Pension Society Roadshow Programme for more details.
Resettlement briefings
The Society conducts, on behalf of the MOD, comprehensive briefing sessions on the Armed Forces Pension Schemes to Service men and women as part of their resettlement process.
Campaign success stories
Complete independence from the MOD has allowed us to engage vigorously with parliament, ministers, military chains of command and government officials to ensure that Service pensions are as good as they can be.
