Step 2. Gather information about your pension plans
Now that you’ve attended a workshop, it’s time to dig out the paperwork and see what you’ve already saved for retirement. If you have a partner, it’s worth checking what they’ve got set aside too! To help you get organised, we’ve created a handy checklist to make sure you have the information you need.
