How can you boost your pension pot?

In the UK, there are around 3.3 million pension pots that are considered as ‘lost’, containing an average of around £9,500 per pot*. Nobody wants to be missing out on money they have built up in a pension, but there’s good news - this kind of financial hit is completely avoidable.

Here are three simple ways to make sure your pension is working its hardest for you.

1. Check up on it

This one might seem obvious, but it’s easy to lose track of your pension pots, where they are, and what they’re doing. If you make a note of your pension providers, and check your pot(s) regularly, you’re far less likely to lose one of them over time.

2. Look at your investment allocation

Your investment allocation is where and how you’re investing your pension. Often, people will just use their pension provider’s default setting. But this might not actually be right for your retirement goals and risk profile. So, it’s a good idea to revisit this every few years.

3. Bump it up

If you’ve had a windfall recently, like a pay rise, bonus, or inheritance, putting a portion of it into your pension is a good idea. Not only is it tax-efficient, but you’ll be glad when your retirement comes around.

As an adviser, my role is to help you get all of this done simply, with all the facts and information you need. That might be helping you review your risk profile, consolidating old pension pots, or making a plan to help you retire early. Investing can help your money grow over time, but the value of investments can go down as well as up.

If that sounds good to you, please get in touch.

Andrzej is located in Maidstone and offers expert financial advice to suit your needs.

Money is rarely just about numbers - it’s often about life’s most important decisions. My role is to help make those choices clearer, calmer, and more confident for you. Good financial planning starts with understanding the person behind the numbers. I take time to listen and explore what matters most to you - your values, motivations, and relationship with money. This helps you gain clarity and feel more in control of the decisions that shape your future.

I guide clients through milestones that matter most, as well as more complex transitions such as divorce, inheritance planning, and other significant life changes, helping them navigate uncertainty with empathy and care. Every plan we build together is practical, flexible, and tailored to your unique needs - helping your money work for the life you want and giving you peace of mind for the future.

When I’m not planning for the future, I’m co-parenting my two brilliant kids, flying gliders, riding motorcycles, or tackling a marathon (once was enough, thanks!). I meditate too - mostly to survive raising a teenager.
