Videos
If you're unable to attend our member events or would like to re-listen to the information from an event, you can watch recordings of our live member event sessions:
The events are organised by our Stakeholder Engagement Team, and they're suitable for all NHS Pension Scheme Members.
Each webinar includes a presentation lasting approximately 40 mins followed by a Question-and-Answer session, during which you can ask questions. The team may not be able to answer any queries relating to your individual member record but will be able to advise on how to get more information. There's also an opportunity at the end of the sessions to give feedback on the event.
You'll need to register your place through Eventbrite. You may have some issues opening Eventbrite if you're using Internet Explorer. If so, try a different browser, such as Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome, or get in touch with the Stakeholder Engagement Team.
If you require additional support with any of the events or would like to find out more, email the Stakeholder Engagement Team at nhsbsa.pensionsevents@nhs.net
If you're unable to make the event you've registered for, we ask that you cancel the tickets on Eventbrite so people on the waiting list can use the spaces.
