About Macmillan's pension scheme
Macmillan currently operates a defined contribution pension scheme run by Legal & General.
If you joined Macmillan on or before 30 April 2005, you'd have had the opportunity to join the Macmillan Cancer Support Pension Scheme, Macmillan’s final salary pension scheme. This scheme's closed to new members and was bought-out by Aviva in January 2026.
This means Aviva provides all the benefits of the Scheme to members directly and Macmillan no longer has any involvement in the Scheme. It is the responsibility of Aviva to pay all pensions owing now or in the future.
You may need to contact Aviva about:
- any queries about the Scheme in general or about your entitlement to benefits, or
- changes your personal details (such as name, address or marital status), or
- notifying a member or beneficiary’s death.
You can get in touch with Aviva by:
