12 years ago I started a linked in group with Marion Elliott in a pub near Worcester. We called it the Pension Play Pen and now the group’s 30 shy of 10,000 members.

The group’s been renamed to include AgeWage – my latest venture but its intent is the same, to help people connected with pensions enjoy an online (and in better times offline) meeting space.

Over the 12 years we’ve had hundreds of lunches , outings to racecourses and trips on my boat – Lady Lucy. I see the group as an amenity and a means to create goodwill between all members.

We’ve even had our own band that competed in Pension Rocks – pictures above.

Recently I asked about 2000 members whether they’d like to test an app I am building in the FCA sandbox. Over 350 people from the group have agreed to test.
