In your fifties? Planning Ahead course promises a bright future by helping you prepare for retirement

Whether you’re looking forward to retiring or approaching it with dread, one thing is for sure you need to plan for your retirement with care as this new shift will completely change your life.

“The fact is, people are living longer and retirement can last for decades.” Said Patricia Cattley, course leader for Planning Ahead

“People need to be fully prepared as they enter this new phase of their lives, a phase that can often span an entire generation.  They need to take control of their own retirement financially, socially and psychologically and empower themselves to make the right decisions for what could be the next 30 years of their life.”

The two day course is held at The Mansion House, Old Warden Park a magnificent stately home set in beautiful parkland, really helping to give you the time and space that you need to focus on your future.

The course can also be delivered in-house at your workplace, so you can be trained at a time and place that suits your busy schedule. This is particularly useful if your organisation has multiple staff that are interested in the course, because you can benefit from the reduced cost of training a group on-site.

Delegates set their own agenda, so whatever retirement topics you are concerned about can be covered.  Some typical subjects include how to cope with change, dealing with money, taxation, health, relationships, legal requirements, part-time work, volunteering and even moving abroad.

“We work towards positive futures” added Patricia.  “This course will give people the confidence that they need to make the most of their retirement.”
