Possible to Cash Pension in?

I have a private pension fund and also a separate AVC fund (for some reason they must be kept separate)

I'd rather use the money at this point to reduce my mortgage and invest elsewhere. I have a defined benefit pension in my current job that is separate to the two funds mentioned above which are private and have no trustees etc.(they are an amalgamation of a number of previous company pensions where I used to work)

Is it possible to cash in on these funds? I know it would be subject to tax etc. but I'd rather take it now that this 0.6% levy has kicked in (which is soon to be increased in my opinion)

Thanks,

BB.

What age are you? If you are over 50 you could explore early retirement options in respect of some of your private pension funds.
