Pensions Advice Please

Hi everyone

I am currently looking to join a pension scheme, I know absolutely nothing about pensions and all the jargon confuses me. I want to put £20 each week initially into my pension (or posssibly ISA if that is better), maybe increasing by £5 each week annually.

Can anyone help? Where do I start? Should I look at ISA's instead of pensions... I'm a complete novice.

    get advice from an IFA. Your contribution is good enough and if you dont want to spend the time or go through the jargon to DIY, you may as well get it done for you.
