Counselling-Directory
If you, or anyone close to you, has ever suffered with distress or from mental health problems then you will fully appreciate Counselling Directory.
We have seen and experienced first hand how important emotional support can be and launched the website after recognising the need for a service providing information and help for those in distress. The service provides everything we wish we’d had access to in our times of need. With this knowledge our service has become unique; we know exactly what it is that those in distress require from our website, and that's exactly what Counselling Directory provides.

Pensions Advisory Service
Any scheme can adopt a rule which allows a member to take an early retirement Pension in the event of incapacity. The definition of incapacity will differ from scheme to scheme but generally it will require an inability to carry out one's own job due to physical or mental illness. Some schemes will require the individual to be incapable not only of performing their own normal employment but to be incapable of carrying out any occupation at all. Clearly, the latter is a more difficult criteria to meet than the former.

Retirement Expert
Long gone are the days where a stereotypical image of retired folk was one of them not getting up to much beyond a spot of light gardening and perhaps, a game of bowls. These days, many retired people are so active in pursuit of all manner of activities that they often put the younger generations to shame.
One thing that hasn’t changed, however, is that people who are about to retire will often be spending time thinking about how they want to fill all the additional free time made available to them by not having to go out to work anymore and what they want to achieve out of this stage of their life.

WebMD
A big portal packed with information about health and related issues. A recent redesign introduced a nifty new tool called Symptom Checker, which lets you self-diagnose, sorry, "pinpoint potential conditions"-in seconds by clicking on body parts and selecting from a list of specific complaints (just be sure to check with your doctor for a real diagnosis). The new WebMD Health Manager lets you store your personal medical records online and make them available to doctors. The new Revolution Health portal, which launched in April, has many of these same tools and features, including its own symptom checker (but WebMD's has cool graphics). Other trustworthy sources of information about disease and other health matters: the Medem Leaning Centers, which aggregates top articles from leading medical societies on a wide range of topics, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and National Institutes of Health.
