Additional support

We understand that some of our members may need extra help from time to time. Whether you're dealing with a health issue, difficulties with sight or speech - or something else - we know that your ability and energy to deal with us may be affected.

We’re happy to help you in any way we can. Below are some examples of ways we can help, but if you need anything that’s not listed, just let us know:

  • If you have hearing or speech difficulties, you can use Relay UK to communicate with us by phone.
  • If you're a British Sign Language (BSL) user, we've partnered with the SignLive service which you can use to chat to us.
  • We can send documents in large print or Braille.
  • We’re trained Dementia Friends so we can give extra help to people living with dementia.
  • All our member-facing staff are trained to put people at ease and take extra time if needed.

On this page you'll find contact details for organisations who can help with a variety of issues. If you need help with your Pension Protection Fund account please don't hesitate to contact us. You may also find the information you need in our FAQs, Video Zone and booklets.

Notify us of your needs

If you'd like to let us know how our member services team can best support you, you can message us through our secure messaging service. We can add this to your record so you don’t have to tell us about your needs again. We’ll only use this information to improve our service and your experience.

Alternatively, you can call us on 0330 123 2222 or write to us at PO Box 254, Wymondham, NR18 8DN to advise us of your needs.
