Young Members and Pensions
Public Sector pensions are in the news a lot lately, but do you really understand the changes and how these will affect your future?
The Young Member's Forum has designed this briefing aimed at informing young members about the threat to their pension and the action they can take to help avert the Great Pensions Robbery.

Join the campaign to save services for young people
04/07/2011) Both the Connexions (careers service) and youth services are at the sharp end of Government attacks on services for young people. Both provide vital support for young people at critical times and when young people need help and advice in making life-changing decisions.
You can help support the campaigns by finding out more and joining the campaigns to defend these services and the workers who provide them.
