Retirement should be a time for enjoying friends, family and hobbies, old and new. But a bit of planning can help you make the most of it, so worries about money don’t get in the way and you can focus on having fun.
So what things should you consider before retirement? Have you thought about downsizing? What are the benefits? What about continuing to work part-time? What aspects of your future should you discuss with? your family?
We're delighted to welcome Edwina Currie for a live webchat on retirement planning. A writer, broadcaster and ex-minister for public health and women's health issues under Margaret Thatcher, Edwina, 66, today works part-time as a writer and broadcaster and has published 11 books. She is also a member of the McCarthy & Stone Greater Life Advisory Board which challenges attitudes to ageing.
In 2011, she downsized and returned to her roots in Derbyshire, close to the area she represented as an MP. Edwina and her husband John have a combined family of four sons, two daughters, nine grandchildren and two great-grandsons.
Join us on 23rd July at 7pm when Edwina will be answering your questions on planning for retirement.
This webchat is sponsored by McCarthy and Stone Money.
