Event Description

Do you know whether you’re on track to retire comfortably, or how you plan to take an income from your pension? We’re delighted to introduce our first Retirement Planning event with Nishma Waite, a Chartered Financial Planner at Fidelius, a well-established, FCA-regulated firm of advisors who we’ve partnered with to provide our members with financial advice.

Whilst we won’t be able to provide specific financial advice during the event, we hope to address some of the main issues that might be preventing your retirement savings from working as hard as they possibly can for you. Whether you want to know what the options are when it comes to taking an income from your pension, or how pension withdrawals are taxed, we’ve got it covered.

We need YOU!

We want to know which aspects of pensions and retirement planning leave you baffled, so please submit any burning questions you might have prior to the event and we’ll do our best to answer them. Remember, however, that we won’t be able to offer personalised advice during the event, so please keep your questions as general as possible.

You can submit your questions via the form below.

  • Duration: 60 mins
  • Online Zoom event: Join from your computer, phone or tablet (a recording will be available)
Melanie Wright and Nishma Waite

More Information

What if I can’t make the event?

If a recording’s available for the event, you can still register for it and we will send you an email with a link to a recording shortly after it ends.

Will my camera be on and will I be visible to the other people?

Your camera and microphone does not need to be on for you to enjoy the event. The choice about whether to do this is completely yours.

How do I watch the live event?

Rest Less events are hosted on Zoom, a computer application that allows you to attend online events just by clicking a link. For detailed instructions, please go to our "FAQ" page, which you can find a link to in the nav bar at the top of the page.

How do I sign-up for and access the recording? (Recorded events only)

Book the event as normal (as if you are attending live). After the event ends you will automatically receive a post-event email with a link to the recording, as long as the event was recorded. You do not need to do anything else and there is no separate booking process for recordings only. Please note it can take up to 24 hours for Zoom to process recordings.
