on behalf of occupational pensioners. |

on issues relating to older people -
for example the Pension Credit, Long
Term Care, Member Nominated trustees.

We
lobby MPs and Peers to get
amendments to Government Bills. |

We
work closely with other pensioner organisations
to improve benefits for all
pensioners. |

We
work tirelessly to secure a better deal
to improve your pensions and benefits. |

We
have formed an alliance with other occupational
pensioner groups (the Occupational Pensioners'
Alliance, OPA) to become more
effective in getting our message across. |
