West Yorkshire Pension Fund is the pension fund for employees of West Yorkshire's five councils (Leeds, Bradford, Wakefield, Kirklees and Calderdale), plus another 181 local-government organisations. We have over 200,000 members.

The Local Government Pension Scheme On 1 April 2008 a new-look LGPS began and in many ways it's better than the old scheme

If you retired or left the LGPS before 1 April 2008 then the new-look pension scheme doesn't apply to you.

Pension increase
3.9% this year
Every year the Government issues a legal document called a Pensions Increase (Review) Order that tells public sector pension schemes (like ours) what the annual increase to pensions is.
