Everyone has a story to tell

To qualify for the £250 voucher your story will need to be published by Legal & General on our website legalandgeneral.com/retirement/. We may also feature your story in our customer newsletter. Rest assured, we won’t publish any information you provide to us without your written permission.   

To be eligible for consideration for publication you will need to write a short summary of what makes your retirement different. Candidates for the stories should be aged 65 or over and a UK resident. If you are submitting on behalf of someone else, please confirm that you have their permission. For any stories that we would like to feature we will need the candidate’s direct permission. This will be requested from shortlisted candidates by 12 July 2021 Entries will be reviewed by the Legal & General Retail Retirement Marketing department. 

The closing date for applications is 23:59 on 30 June 2021. Candidates who are shortlisted will be contacted by 12 July 2021 but we may be in touch before this point to find out more information. If you are shortlisted, there is no guarantee that your story will be published nor that you will qualify for the voucher. We will keep you in touch every step of the way so that you know if your story is published.  

We will confirm those entries which have qualified for the voucher via email and telephone confirmation. The voucher will be paid to the person mentioned in the story and will be sent via email to the address provided within 30 days of us first publishing your story.
