How do you view pension pot

I have a local government small pension and a teachers pension. Having searched through both sites I can find quotes what it is worth for me in retirement, but no total pot.

On here I have seen threads with people say my pot is worth 9k or 500k or whatever.

I am probably being dozy.
Why doesn't the the website tell me?

Confused.

She can only take the lump sum when she takes the pension. It will be the same age. You can’t take the lump sum separately in the LGPS.

Apologies, yes I should gave stipulated that it can be taken when the pension as a whole is taken.

I got £8000 for a tiny LGPS pension that was projected to pay out £700 a year from age 67. I was 55 at the time ( yes I know the x 12 commutation factor is crap thanks 😉)
I transferred it into my Sipp, took bloody ages , a good six months. They really make you jump through hoops.
