Hi Tortilla,
You can get tax relief on private pension contributions worth up to 100% of your annual earnings.
While there is no limit on the amount of pension contributions you can pay, you will not get tax relief on all your contributions if you pay more than your taxable pay into your pension in a tax year.
Also, there is a limit on the amount of extra pension you can buy in the LGPS by paying additional pension contributions.
The most you can currently buy is £7,579 of extra yearly pension.
The annual allowance of £60,000 is the amount your pension savings can increase by in a year without you having to pay extra tax.
If your savings increase by more than the annual allowance, you will have to pay tax on the excess.
You can find more information via the LGPS website here:

Thank you.
