I have a pension with Standard Life which was arranged through a company I used to work for 8 years ago.
I have been a director of a company for the past few months and before that self employed for just under 3 years.
Is it possible to carry on paying into said pension, and if so how do I go about doing this - does this need to be arranged through my company or can I do it on a personal level?
At the moment I will only get about £46 a year from it when I retire  so obviously I would like to start paying into it from now...

How long were you paying into it for & how much for it to be worth 46 quid a year?? 
I'm not sold on stand alone pensions, I get a non contributory pension with my work but I wouldnt have a private one I dont think, heard too many bad things about them.
