Just found out I can access my pension early because I’m 52 and my health is unlikely to improve.
A bit scunnered that if I want to take more than 25% out, I need to pay huge amounts of tax, but still glad I can get some money out.:beer::j

You can take 25% tax free plus any other income e.g. pension would be tax free up to your tax allowance which for most of us is £11,850."A nation's greatness is measured by how it treats its weakest members." ~ Mahatma Gandhi

If you're claiming a means tested benefit then anything you take out from your pension could affect this.Just found out I can access my pension early because I’m 52 and my health is unlikely to improve.
