We're a large group of bp pensioners out of around 60,000 who've had the value of our pensions cut materially by bp. We just want to get back what's ours. We're raising £12,000 to seek legal advice.

We are a large group of bp pensioners out to a total of around 60,000 who've all had the purchasing power of our pensions cut materially as a result of bp's actions.  We simply want to get back what's ours.

In the last two years the cost of living rose by 7.5% and then by 13.4%.  Our bp pensions only rose by 5% each year.  The value of our pensions has been reduced permanently  by 11%.

We hope to raise £12,000 to fund a legal review from a King's Counsel with a deep specialism in pension and trust law.  An opinion from such a respected barrister is aimed at strengthening our public campaign, helping us to develop our case to pursue, if necessary, and persuading bp to do the right thing in compliance with the law. 

The average bp pension in UK is only around £20,000.  If we are successful, we will increase this average by around £2,000 per pensioner; not just in one year, but for the rest of our lives and the lives of our dependents.

We thank you for any financial contribution that you can make to our cause.
