Hello My name is Tony and for the last 25 years, I have been helping clients to manage their investments and pension planning. I am an Investment and Pension Specialist at F1RST Financial Services and focus primarily on consolidating pensions ready for retirement. After a short period as a photographer, I joined the TSB Bank in October 1988 on their Accelerated Management Training Programme. I left in September 1993 as an Assistant Branch Manager and joined Black Horse Financial Services (Lloyds Bank) as a Financial Adviser. From there, I joined Allied Dunbar in September 1996, where I started trading as F1RST Financial Services, before becoming an Independent Financial Adviser in 2000. I have helped many clients and up until recently built a business purely on personal recommendations. Away from work, I am married to Rebecca, have a Golden Retriever called Lola and have four children aged 15 to 28. I play guitar in a band, enjoy woodworking, metalworking, record collecting, walking, running and travel. I am an ambassador for The Youth Cancer Trust, based in Bournemouth and via a music festival I used to organise, we so far raised over £25,000 for them.
