As a member of the Plan you build up valuable benefits which you are able to access once you retire from the Scheme. However, what happens if you were to die? Where would that money go?
No one likes to think or talk about death, but it’s really important that you complete an Expression of Wish Form. This form allows you to tell the Plan Trustees who you would like to receive your pension benefits in the event of your death.
If you’ve already completed an Expression of Wish, you should also make sure that the details are up to date to reflect your current circumstances.
Improvements have recently been made so it is even easier to confirm your wishes to the Trustee.
You can now update your Expression of Wish on MyPension — your online pension portal. This is the most secure way to tell the Trustee your wishes.
You can access MyPension through the Plan website homepage. Simply click on the ‘MyPension’ button in the top right-hand corner of the homepage and follow the instructions to log in.
If you’d prefer, you can still access a printable Expression of Wish form from the Library section of the Plan website — now available in an enlarged text format.
