Well deserved for the countless hours Paul has put in on a voluntary basis, principally for ShareSoc's policy committee.
Recognising commitment that actually drives better outcomes. The 2025 Stan Grierson Award goes to Paul Greenwood, whose actuarial insight, sound judgement and constructive challenge have sharpened ShareSoc’s policy thinking. His work shows what real voluntary expertise delivers in practice. Congratulations Paul🥳. bit.ly/4i8GVIv

It would be much better for @RachelReevesMP to admit a mistake, break the manifesto, raise the tax she needs and make the right decisions to grow the economy. Don’t dream up a muddle of growth-damaging taxes trying to hold to a manifesto which never made sense in the first place. If the economy recovers strongly voters will forgive the manifesto. If it doesn’t Labour will not be saved by saying it stuck to a manifesto.

Yesterday’s ShareSoc AGM showed how vital these sessions are for real investor influence. When shareholders engage, governance improves and accountability sharpens. Thanks to everyone who joined the conversation. Progress only happens when the community turns up. #ShareSoc #AGM #Investors

Well over 3 years on since Hartley Pensions entered administration and less than 20% of SIPP and SASS accounts have been transferred to other providers. This is a scandal, in my opinion. So, ShareSoc is upping the pressure on UHY and the FCA to do their jobs.
ShareSoc launches campaign to push for a resolution of the #HartleyPensions scandal. shorturl.at/cSjeC
