Where to find the actuarial reduction factors for LGPS - which worksheet?

Options

I am in the LGPS pension scheme (a current member and still making contributions). Could anybody kindly direct me to where in the following link I will find the relevant actuarial reductions please?

Actuarial guidance (lgpsregs.org)

By way of background I have both pre and post-2014 tranches with a normal retirement age of 65 and 67 (linked to my state pension age) respectively. My current thinking is I will likely draw my LGPS pension at 65 however it would also be good to see what the actuarial reduction would be if I chose to take my pension before 65 too.

I have looked in the ‘Early Retirement’ section and at the spreadsheet called ‘Factor spreadsheet version 2023-24’ however I’m unsure which worksheets I need to refer to if I were to take my pension at 65, i.e. two years early (I only need to calculate a reduction on my post-2014 tranche) and which additional worksheet I would need to look at to calculate the actuarial reduction that would be applied on my pre-2014 tranche if I were to retire before the age of 65, possibly at 64 so only looking at a one year actuarial reduction (and three years early for my post-2014 tranche) but it would be helpful to see what the reductions may be. I also realise these actuarial reduction factors are subject to change too.   

Thank you in advance for your help.
