I am a Chartered Financial Planner based in Cumbria and North Lancs and offer financial advice on both a face to face and online basis. The first meeting is an opportunity for me to get to know you, what your objectives are, and how can I help you achieve these. The fee for this meeting is at my expense, it is free to you and without obligation. I offer advice on all aspects of financial planning however over my career I have become a specialist in the retirement market. I have gained an in depth knowledge and experience of all types of pensions including defined benefit, income drawdown and annuity purchase. Annuity purchase has become a popular choice now that interest rates are higher. We not only search the whole of the market to get our clients the best rates but also ensure they set up the annuity with most suitable options. Having been advising clients for over 17 years I strongly believe that money should offer people freedom, lifestyle and peace of mind and should not be something which causes worry. In order to do this I build trusting long term relationships with my clients, allowing me to implement bespoke financial plans for them which are tailored to their individual circumstances and needs.
