Why Use the Internet?

    Retirement is a big life step that most of us will experience at some point in our lives. There is a considerable amount of information on retirement available, produced in many forms including leaflets, information packs and books. In recent years, this information has become more widely available on the Internet. Government Departments in particular have made a concerted effort to make relevant information freely available on their websites.
  • Speed of access
    The advantage of using the Internet is that you can access relevant information quickly from your computer. This can save considerable time as you can locate the actual product/information you need in minutes. The purpose of this guide is to lead you through relevant websites to find information on five key areas of retirement.
