Pension Awareness Week 2025 (15-19 September)

Take our 5 easy challenges

Next week marks the start of Pension Awareness Week 2025 – the annual campaign that encourages you to engage with your pension.

This year’s campaign includes a series of pension-related challenges to help you get a better understanding of your pension. So, we thought we’d join in and set some of our own. See if you can complete them by the end of the week.
