At Manchester we recently set up a new group - it's currently a peer support group for people approaching retirement or considering it. The group met once already and it was one of the most lively debates we've had at a network group meeting! We're currently populating their network group pages with some FAQ's that they have asked for and are working closely with our pensions and training teams to make sure the content is all relevant and up to date.
