The clocks go back on 27 October, which means you have an extra hour available to track down any lost or forgotten pension pots.
It’s estimated that there are 2.8 million lost or forgotten pension pots across the UK, each worth an average £9,500.
National Pension Tracing Day (NPTD) is a campaign founded in 2021 to encourage the nation to look for lost pensions. The campaign website, www.nationalpensiontracingday.co.uk, is a great place to start on your journey to finding any lost pensions. The site has a wealth of information and points users towards sources of help, as well as revealing common pitfalls to watch out for.
