SUMMARY:Society AGM and 80th Anniversary Celebration
DESCRIPTION:Mark your calendars: on Wednesday 3 June 2026\, we’ll be returning to the iconic Tower of London for a truly special occasion – our 2026 Annual General Meeting and the Society’s 80th Anniversary celebration! \nThis milestone event is your chance to be part of something memorable. Join fellow members as we celebrate eight decades of the Society\, express our heartfelt thanks for your continued support\, and look ahead to an exciting future together. \nAlongside the celebrations\, the AGM offers a valuable opportunity to hear about the Society’s progress\, connect directly with our team\, and meet key stakeholders and affinity partners. Most importantly\, this is your platform to have your say\, and help shape the future of the Society. \nIn the words of our Chief Executive Neil Marshall… \n“For 80 years\, the Forces Pension Society has remained steadfast in its commitment to securing fair pension rights for service members and veterans. Its vision aligns with the principles of duty\, fairness\, and trust that military service exemplifies. \nThe creation of the Society in 1946 was a crucial step in addressing the inequalities and uncertainties surrounding military pensions\, ensuring that those who had given so much for their country and the bereaved were appropriately supported in financial terms to live a dignified retirement. \nThe Society remains as vital as ever. With private and public sector pensions continuing to evolve\, new challenges arise that require deep subject matter expertise\, corporate memory\, credibility and strength in membership numbers to help exert influence across government and shape policy deliberations. \n80 years on\, the legacy of those who first formed the Society endures in every campaign\, every positive outcome\, and every service member who receives the pension they deserve. We hope those who formed the Society 80 years ago would recognise and reflect positively on the Society they would see today.” \n\nBe part of the celebration – secure your place now! \nREGISTER HERE \nAny questions\, please contact the membership team at memsec@forpen.co.uk \n  \n  \n
