The rate of pensions increase is currently linked to the Consumer Prices Index (CPI) and is calculated in line with the CPI index based on the 12 months to September. 

As the September 2025 CPI rate was 3.8%, your Active pension account will be revalued from 6 April 2026 by 3.8%.

If you are a Deferred (former) member your pension will be increased by 3.8% from 6 April 2026.

If you are a Retired/Dependant member please visit the pensions increase section to find out how the increase is applied.
