A message from your Scheme Chairman 

For the first time we are sending this communication to all our 

members including our deferred members (those who have left 

and kept a pension in the Scheme). We hope you enjoy this issue 

of In Touch which historically we have only sent to our pensioners. 

As well as the financial updates that help you understand how your 

Scheme is run, we also like to bring you all news of the events and 

activities that have been happening in our pensioner community 

throughout the year. We love receiving your photographs and stories and 

so do keep them coming. 

In this issue of In Touch we are looking at the Scheme’s facts and figures 

for the year ending 31 March 2011. The information we provide is a 

highlight from the full Report and Accounts and we tell you how you can 

get a copy of this on page 5. 

You will note that we received additional 

funding of £37.5m in December 2010 following 

the successful completion of the Company’s 

refinancing agreement with its lenders.

The news magazine for members of The George Wimpey Staff Pension Scheme 


After the accounting year end, we received a further payment 

of £16.25million following the sale of the North American business 

and this will be reflected in next year’s accounts. 

The membership figures look different this year and this is because 

the Company has set up a new category for current employees. 

This category of membership is called ‘employed deferred’ and 

these are members who, since 1 September 2010, remain in the 

Company’s employment but no longer build up future pension in 

the Scheme. The details of the current membership now totaling 

14,439 are shown on page 4. 

The Joint Investment Sub-Committee (JISC) continues to 

implement the new investment strategy agreed with the Trustees 

last year. The JISC has met several times during 2011 and there 

has been much activity in repositioning the Scheme’s investments 

to comply with the new strategy, including the appointment of new 

managers. There is still some way to go and I expect the new 

strategy to be fully in place by next Spring/early Summer.

As I write, the world’s stock markets are all over the place 

and we expect this uncertainty to continue for some while. 

I would like to take this opportunity to remind you that 

pension scheme investment is very much for the long term 

and we should therefore stay calm during such volatile 

periods and not react too hastily. The Trustees and the JISC 

continue to closely monitor the situation with their advisers. 

During 2011 we have also started working more closely with the 

Trustees of the Taylor Woodrow Fund by holding joint trustee meetings. 

There are no plans to formally merge the two schemes but by working 

together we can reduce the time and costs involved in the 

management of the schemes. 

There has been a big exercise undertaken by the Company which 

started in September for those of you who retain a deferred pension in 

the Scheme and who may wish to transfer out your benefits on 

enhanced terms. This offer is another important part of the Company’s 

ongoing, long-term strategy to manage the level of financial risk in the 

Scheme. The effect on the Scheme of members accepting the offer 

will be a reduction in the overall value of benefits the Scheme needs to 

pay in the future. The Trustees worked with the Company to ensure 

you received clear communication on this complex topic and had 

access to good independent financial advice. The Trustees very closely 

followed the Pensions Regulators guidance on offers of enhanced 

transfer values. This offer which closes shortly does not apply to 

pensioners or overseas residents and qualifying members would have 

received their offer packs back in September. 

The excellent communication between the Trustees and the Company 

has continued throughout 2010/2011 and the Finance Director, Ryan 

Mangold, attends most Trustees’ meetings to update us on Company 

issues. We were delighted to welcome Pete Redfern, Group Chief 

Executive, to our November meeting when he explained the Company’s 

new business strategy to the Trustees. 

Also in October we held the annual Pensioners’ Committee meeting 

when regional representatives meet with me and some of my fellow 

Trustees to discuss current Scheme management issues. Contact 

details of your regional pensioners representative is shown on page 8. 

You have a very able team of Trustees and in-house Pensions Team 

who have continued to work tirelessly to ensure the good management 

of the Scheme and I would like to thank them for their continuing 

support during 2011. 

Anna Edgeworth 

Chairman of the Trustees

Fund facts and figures 

During 2010/2011, £42.6m was paid out of the Scheme in 

pension and benefits, while £83.6m came into the Scheme 

from contributions and investment returns. Part of the duty 

of the Trustees is to prepare an annual report and set of 

accounts for the Scheme. Here are some of the highlights 

from that report: 

Money coming in 

Total income during the year £83.6m 

Members’ contributions £0.6m 

Company’s contributions* £64m 

Income from investments 

Money going out 

£19m 

Total outgoings during the year £42.6m 

Pension payments £37.4m 

Lump sums on retirement and death £3.4m 

Transfers out £0.2m 

Administration costs £1.6m 

*includes an additional contribution of £37.5 million to help reduce the deficit more quickly. 

Please note that the figures given here do not show the one-off payment of £16.25 million 

mentioned in the Chairman’s introduction as this payment was received after 31 March 2011. 

It will be included in next year’s report on the Fund’s finances.

Member Nominated Trustees 

The Scheme is looked after by a board of Trustees. Some of the Trustees are appointed 

by the Company and some are nominated for the role by their fellow Scheme members. 

These are the Member Nominated Trustees (MNTs). An Independent Trustee Company, 

Law Debenture, also works with the Trustee Board as a co-Trustee. 

The Trustee 

Board must 

ensure that at 

least a third of 

the Trustees 

are MNTs. 

Member Nominated Trustees 

can be either Pensioners or 

Employed Deferred members 

(Active members at the date the 

Scheme closed to future 

accrual who are still working for 

Taylor Wimpey). 

6 

Last year the four-year term of 

office for one of our MNTs was 

due to end. However, as this 

coincided with the proposals to 

close the Scheme to future 

accrual, the election of a new 

MNT was postponed until after 

a decision had been made 

about the future of the Scheme. 

This helped the Trustee Board 

maintain continuity and benefit 

from the skills and experience 

of the existing MNT during that 

difficult time. After the changes 

to the Scheme had been 

agreed, in October 2010, the 

process for electing a new MNT 

commenced. Eligible members 



Lee Bishop, who already held the 

position, was re-elected and started 

his second four-year term of office on 

2 December 2010. 

were asked for their nominations 

for a Trustee from the Employed 

Deferred membership and Lee 

Bishop, who already held the 

position, was re-elected and 

started his second four-year term 

of office on 2 December 2010. 

Lee Bishop

Your administration service 

is moving 

Next year Aon Hewitt, who are the 

administrators of the Scheme, will be 

moving the administration service from their 

Sheffield office to their office in Birmingham. 

The move shouldn’t take too long to complete and Aon Hewitt will be 

writing to you once they have settled the Scheme in the Birmingham 

office. In the meantime, please continue to contact Aon Hewitt in 

Sheffield if you have any questions about your pension or benefits. 

Their contact details are on the back page of the newsletter. 

And the pensioner payroll? 

The pensioner payroll will still be administered by Aon Hewitt from 

their office in Sheffield, and pensions will continue to be paid in the 

same way as now. All your contact details for pension payment 

queries will remain the same for now but when the administration 

service moves to Birmingham Aon Hewitt will write to you with the 

new address and telephone number.

Pensioner Representatives 

As you will see from the various updates in this issue of In Touch, our pensioner 

representatives are kept very busy during the year. They are all very dedicated to helping their 

fellow pensioners keep in touch and staying up to date with the changes within the Scheme. 

The annual Pensioner Representatives Meeting was held on 26 October at the head office in High Wycombe. 

Anna Edgeworth opened proceedings, welcoming all to the meeting. Attendees received an update on the Company’s performance over the 

past 12 months. Norman Sherwood gave a very interesting talk on the role of a pensioner Trustee and Julian Waller, Head of Pensions, updated 

everyone on the revised Trustee Board structure and Member Nominated Trustee arrangements. 

Our current GWSPS Pensioner Representatives are listed below. We are always on the look out for new enthusiastic individuals to join the 

ranks. If you are interested in becoming a pensioner representative please contact the Pensions Team for more information.

Peter in the stoneyard 

One of the members of the group, Peter 

Turner, contacted us recently and is keen 

to get in touch with any of his excolleagues 

who remember their time 

working on the Pearl Assurance building in 

Peterborough during 1990 and 1991. 

The project, which cost around 

£100million, was George Wimpey’s 

biggest project at the time. Peter was the 

foreman stonemason on site during the 

construction of the building. He sent us 

The finished product! 

some photographs from his collection, 

including this one showing him supervising 

the setting of the Pearl Assurance coat 

of arms. 

After the Pearl Assurance building was 

finished, Peter went on to work on projects 

in Birmingham and Scotland.

Friends far and wide 

We have some very close pensioner networks 

here in the UK and abroad. Many of our pensioners 

live overseas and you can’t get much more far-flung 

than New Zealand, where Alastair and Jane Somerville 

live. Alastair, who started with Wimpey in 1938 and 

worked for the company for over 40 years, celebrated his 

90th birthday this summer. But it was a double celebration, 

as he and his wife Jane also celebrated their 70th wedding 

anniversary this year. 

Congratulations to Alastair and Jane! 

Alastair ended his long career with Wimpey as a manager 

in the Civil and Mechanical Engineering department and still 

retains fond memories of his time with the company. 

Please contact the Pensions team 

if you would like to get in touch with 

Alastair and Jane.

Southampton 

20 pensioners from the 

Southampton region met 

up at The White Swan 

pub in Swaythling, near 

the old Southampton 

office on 12 October for 

their annual lunch. 

Some of the regular attendees were 

unfortunately unable to come this year, 

but there were some new pensioners 

attending who had only retired within 

the last year or so.

Leeds 

The Leeds Association 

is rounding off the year 

with the Christmas 

do, scheduled for 

1pm on 14 December,

Club, Leeds. 

Get in touch with Bernard Grubb if 

you want to attend. Also, thanks to 

all of you who came to the annual 

Fish & Chip lunch in October, at 

Murgatroyds (in Yeadon) and 

made it such a success. A great 

time was had by all. 

Hong Kong reunion 

The annual reunion of the 

1 Queens Road Central Hong 

Kong Bank team took place 

on the 7 July 2011. 

Compared to the 25th anniversary gathering in 

2010 attendance was down, with 27 responding to 

say that they would be unable to attend. 

However, Bob Jones, Mike Bryant, Malcolm Brown, 

Barry Franchi and Richard Smyth met in O’Neills, 

Wardour Street for a few drinks and reminiscences 

about the building of the Hong Kong Bank and the 

friends they made. Unfortunately John McEvoy, 

who arranges the reunions, was unable to attend 

as he was recovering from an operation, but he is 

already planning for next years’ reunion. 

The 2012 reunion is planned for 

11 July and invitations will be sent

Christmas past 

and present 

It’s nearing Christmas time 

again and many of us will be 

planning and attending parties 

and events to celebrate with our 

friends and family. 

Around the regions many of the pensioner 

association members are also getting together 

to enjoy good food and drink and share 

memories. This carries on the tradition of 

Christmas parties held by the Company. 

Marjorie Voller wrote to us last year with some 

of her photographs and reminiscences from her 

time working in Denham and then in 

Hammersmith. We have included some of 

these here. Many were taken during the 

Wimpey Christmas parties held during and just 

after the Second World War and really capture 

the spirit and vibrancy of these events.

Congratulations 

to two of our pensioners who 

both celebrated their 100th 

birthdays in 2011: 

Mr AE Prince: 29/01/1911 

Mr GS Longster: 16/08/1911 



George celebrated his 100th birthday with 

a family party at his home in Delph.

George Longster, the second of this year’s centenarians, was born 

in Leeds and started off as a joiner and cabinetmaker. He worked 

for Nicholson’s of Leeds and became a quantity surveyor before the 

Second World War. In 1939 he joined the Royal Corps of Signals and 

rose from Lance Corporal to Sergeant. He served in the North Africa 

Campaign fighting Rommel at Tobruk. He was wounded, and captured 

in 1943. George was sent to Stalag 18c, a prisoner of war camp in 

Austria, and spent the rest of the war there. While there, George kept 

a record of his experiences and has recently published this online. It is 

a fascinating insight into his life as a prisoner of war and is incredibly 

well preserved. 

Anyone interested in finding out more 

about George’s experiences as a 

prisoner of war 

should go to: 

www.longster.net 

After the war, George met his 

wife, Minnie, at a dance in 

Whitehaven, while on a visit to a 

fellow ex prisoner of war, and they 

got married in 1946 in York. He 

worked as a Quantity Surveyor 

for Shepherds of York rising to the 

position of Building Operations 

Manager for the Bradford area in 

the mid 1950s. In 1960 George 

and Minnie moved to Delph on 

the Yorkshire/Lancashire border 

when George joined Wimpey’s. George, age 17 

He worked as a Speculative 

Housing Manager in Leeds for many years, and was a great 

friend of Frank Beaumont, who was Regional Manager at the 

time. He retired in August 1976. 

George celebrated his 100th birthday with a family party at his 

home in Delph. 

Many thanks to Gerry Cunningham for sending in the 

photographs of George’s birthday celebration and to George’s 

son Richard Longster for the information about his father’s 

remarkable life.

Benefit updates 

Tax 

From April 2012 the index against which the personal tax allowance 

is increased will change from the Retail Prices Index (RPI) to the 

Consumer Prices Index (CPI). This means that the personal allowance 

will generally be increasing at a slower rate than it has done previously. 

The personal allowance is the amount of income you can receive in the 

tax year before tax is deducted. 

To stop older people from losing out financially as a result of the 

change, for the duration of this parliament the annual increases in the 

age-related allowances (that is for over 65s and over 75s) will remain 

linked to RPI. 

A quick reminder - Winter Fuel Payment 

We told you in the Summer In Touch that the Government’s austerity 

measures meant that the Winter Fuel Payment was reducing this 

year. The basic rate for Winter 2011/12 will be £200 per qualifying 

household, rising to £300 if someone in the household is over age 80. 

If you are receiving State Pension and are normally resident in Great 

Britain or Northern Ireland you will usually receive the Winter Fuel 

Payment, either into your bank account or by cheque, in November 

or December. 

If you have any questions about the Winter Fuel Payment you can 

get information by calling the Winter Fuel Payments Helpline on: 

0845 915 1515 (text phone: 0845 601 5613) Monday to Friday.

Digital Switchover 

Help Scheme 

The traditional analogue television signal is being switched off. The 

timing of the switch to digital signal depends on which television 

region you live in. Some regions have already switched over. 

Televisions will need to be digital by the switchover date to be able 

to continue receiving television programs. A letter will be sent to you 

when the swtichover is due to take place in your area. 

The Switchover Help Scheme has been set up by the Government 

to help older or disabled people by converting one of their televisions 

to digital in the run-up to the switchover. You can receive help to 

convert your TV to digital if you: 

• are aged 75 or over; 

• get or could get Disabilty Living Allowance, Attendance Allowance, 

Constant Attendance Allowance, or Mobility Supplement; 

• have lived in a care home for six months or more; 

• are registered blind or partially sighted. 

If you would like help with the 

switchover, or to check when it 

will happen in your area, 

call free from a landline on 

0800 40 85 900 or 

textphone 0800 40 85 936 

between 8am and 8pm 

Monday to Friday and 

8am and 6pm Saturday and 

Sunday. You can also log on to 

www.helpscheme.co.uk

Pension increase for 2012 

The annual increase in the Retail Prices Index (RPI) is used to 

calculate the increase to your pension. It is capped at a maximum 

increase of 5% per year for your pre April 2006 pension and 2.5% 

for your post April 2006 pension. The increase in the September 

RPI, was 5.6%, so your pension increase on 1 January 2012 will 

be 5% for pension earned before 1 April 2006 and 2.5% for 

pension earned from 1 April 2006. 

Staying in touch 

with your benefits 

As well as sending you a copy of In Touch twice a year, the 

Trustees sometimes need to send you important information 

about your benefits. For example, if you are not receiving your 

pension yet the administrators will need to write to you when 

it is due to start. 

To make sure that you receive all the information you need 

about the Scheme you need to contact the administrators, 

Aon Hewitt, if you change your address. Please write to them 

at the address on the back page.

Recently it has come to our 

attention that fraudsters are 

telephoning employees or 

former employees (including 

pensioners), who have Taylor 

Wimpey shares, and offering to 

buy the shares at very attractive 

prices – from £15 to £20 a 

share. They have obtained the 

names and addresses from the 

information the Company is 

legally obliged to give to 

Companies House. 

The calls are often followed by a 

request for money up front as a 

‘bond’ or other form of security, 

which they claim will be paid 

back if the sale does not go 

ahead. Inevitably, the offer is 

fraudulent, and any money you 

pay will NOT be returned to you. 

20 

Hoax calls - make sure you don’t get tricked 

As we’ve noted in previous newsletters, there are increasing numbers of 

fraudsters who are becoming ever more skilled at getting people’s personal 

information – not only through the internet but also via the telephone. 

Please be extra suspicious if you 

receive calls like these, as the 

fraudsters are likely to use 

high-pressure sales tactics and 

have even tricked experienced 

investors out of money. 

So far we have identified that 

these callers state that they are 

an ‘investment company based 

overseas’ and have called 

themselves names such as 

‘Grenfell and Blackrun’ and 

‘Warr and Fisher’. 

So how can you ensure you 

don’t get caught? There are a 

few simple things to remember: 

Any firm calling you ‘out of the 

blue’ offering to buy your shares 

is unlikely to be a proper firm, 

authorised by the Financial 

Services Authority. 



You can check the validity 

of a firm by looking at the 

register of authorised firms 

on The Financial Services 

Authority (FSA) website. 

Reputable firms, and banks and 

building societies will NEVER ask 

for your full personal details or 

security details over the phone or 

online. For example, they will not 

ask you for your shareholder’s 

number in full ‘for security 

purposes’ – rather they will ask 

you to confirm part of it. 

Just because they sound 

convincing, and have a lot of 

information about you, doesn’t 

mean they are legitimate. 

Any deal that sounds too good 

to be true is likely not to be true 

and should be approached with 

extreme caution. 

If you receive such a call and 

wish to report it, or if you have 

any concerns about scam calls, 

you can contact the FSA on 

http://www.fsa.gov.uk/ 

Pages/Doing/Regulated/ 

Law/Alerts/form.shtml 

or by calling 0845 606 1234. 

Please be wary of any such 

calls and make sure that you
