Check your eligibility for entitlement to receive Oxford Brookes pensions

Flexible/phased retirement allows members to draw some or all of their pension benefits, carry on working in reduced capacity (reduced FTE or grade) and carry on building up pension benefits.
You usually have to claim your State Pension - it isn't normally paid automatically, unless you are receiving certain benefits before you reach State Pension age. You can claim your state pension even if you are still working.
The Pension Advisory Service has a useful section which collates various information related to the state pension provision.
