Newsletters

The Pensions Action Group published an occasional newsletter at irregular intervals during the height of the campaign.

The newsletter files are in pdf format which your device should be able to display and print. If you have problems, you may need to download the free reader from www.adobe.com. (You can uncheck the box against any additional software they offer as it's not needed.)

You can also save a copy onto your hard disk. In Internet Explorer you can do this either by clicking on the floppy disk icon on the toolbar or by pressing Alt and then selecting 'File' and 'Save as' from the menu.

To receive notification by email if publication of the newsletter is restarted, send a blank message to the editor here
