The State Pension is a regular payment from the government that most people can claim when they reach State Pension age (SPA). However, this money alone won’t be enough to give you the retirement you deserve.  Currently, you could receive a maximum of £8,546.20 a year (or £164.35 a week) providing you have met the requirements.
