    A guide to benefits

  • Dependants' benefits

    The fund automatically provides benefits for your dependants if you die. These benefits may include:

    • a lump sum;
    • an eligible dependant's pension; and
    • pensions for up to two children.

    When you retire you can also choose to provide an extra pension for a dependant, in exchange for some of your own pension.

    We have carefully chosen a company called Origen (which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority) to give Railways Pension Scheme members independent financial advice. See Quick Links - Origen to visit their website.
