workSMART is aimed at people at work so this is not a comprehensive guide for today's pensioners. Our aim is to give people who are still working some idea of what benefits and support may be available when they retire.
Of course, what is available today may not be available tomorrow. Governments can change their policies, and if there's a change of government then there may well be major changes.
For more information about state help for pensioners look at this section of the Directgov website.
You can also find an online benefits calculator on the Age UK website
