Running the scheme

The scheme is looked after by a trustee company called Whitbread Pension Trustees Limited. It’s a not-for-profit company that has a board of eight directors. Whitbread chooses four directors, and members of the scheme choose the other four.

The money in the scheme is held in trust, which means that Whitbread is not allowed to use it. The Trustees administer the scheme in line with the scheme’s trust deed and rules.
