| Annotation | The Pensions Education Fund (PEF) provides funding for not-for-profit organisations, and began in January 2006 with the purpose of assessing the effectiveness of the delivery of pensions information by trusted third parties, mainly via the workplace, rather than directly by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP). Originally scheduled to run until March 2008, the Fund has been extended for a further year, although this evaluation focuses on 2006-2008. This report outlines the findings of interviews with 14 of the 26 providers and samples of employers and individuals with whom they engaged. It focuses on the added value that a trusted third party can bring to the process of delivering pensions information and exploring providers' and employers' experiences of setting up and running PEF initiatives.
