LifeSight Ireland’s Pre‑Retirement Webinar Series, launched in 2024 and continuing into 2026, is designed to help members approaching retirement plan with confidence and clarity. Recognising that retirement is a major life transition, the webinars support both the financial and personal wellbeing aspects of preparing for life after work.

The programme addresses common member concerns, including uncertainty around pension options, taxation, estate planning, healthcare costs, and the emotional and lifestyle changes that often accompany retirement. LifeSight’s approach reflects the reality that a successful retirement is about quality of life, not just money.
