2024 Pre-Retirement Seminar dates announced

9 October 2023

North Wales Police Federation, in partnership with Spillane and Co, have scheduled four Pre-Retirement Seminars for 2024. These Seminars are available to Officers and staff due to retire within the next 2 years.

Retirement is one of the biggest lifestyle changes any of us will face. Due to rising longevity, it is becoming increasingly important that staff prepare effectively for retirement, both financially and in terms of lifestyle provision.
 
Providing assistance to help employees plan for this transition is important to help them to make more informed decisions for a more secure and rewarding retirement.
 
To that end, the Federation, working in partnership with Spillane & Co Wealth Management, introduced a new style two-day pre-retirement seminar for police officers and police staff in 2014. It’s proved to be very popular, with seminars being fully subscribed.
 
These two days enable participants to consider aspects of life upon retirement and the kind of adjustments they might make after they retire. To help in this process, invited speakers lead relaxed discussions on important topics on retirement-related themes.
 
The seminar helps you to plan more effectively and manage the key stages of the process, with the needs of the participants of each particular seminar being the key driver. It’s very interactive, and our aim is to get the answers to your questions to help you make the most of your retirement.  The programme also provides an opportunity to acquire useful insights into the challenges, as well as the new openings, facing those about to retire.
 
The two days covers:

• Preparing for the next stage of your life
• Adopting a different lifestyle and considering further employment
• Marketing yourself for the future
• A healthier retirement
• Your pension scheme
• Financial planning
• Investments
• Putting yours affairs in order
• National Association of Retired Police Officers (NARPO)
• Dealing with your questions and concerns

 
The next courses available are:
 
Monday 18^th & Tuesday, 19^th March, 2024
Monday 3^rd & Tuesday 4^th June, 2024
Monday, 16^th and Tuesday, 17^th September, 2024
Monday 18^th & Tuesday 19^th November, 2024
 
The seminars will be held at Spillane & Co, The Old Bank, Conwy Road, Colwyn Bay. Start time 9 am on both days.
