I received my termination letter today after a telephone consultation with a work doctor last week. I’m still awaiting figures from the Pension fund but I was wondering who may advise that I am unable to have any paid employment in the future or even do voluntary work as this was not mentioned in the letter - something that has been mentioned before on here. I am currently on a chemo break and may (or may not) feel up to some voluntary work in the future. Thanks

All you need to do is contact the MacMillan help line 0808 808 00 00 and you can be put in touch with an IFA, the best of advice and free. I had a chat with one face to face and his advice was fantastic.

Good luck

Hi anndanvyes I did thanks - I was advised that to receive a Tier 1 pension, gainful employment for not less than 30 hours per week was unlikely so as long as I did not work over 30 hours I could! However I may only be interested in some voluntary work if I’m well enough so was pleased to hear that I could! Jayne x
