About

I believe everyone should have the opportunity to put themselves in a better financial position, so providing education on how to do this is a fundamental part of what I do. I’m an experienced and trusted Chartered Fellow Financial Adviser, having worked in financial services since 2002. I love being able to offer holistic advice but my passion has always been all things Retirement planning and Estate Planning and consider these to be my specialist subjects. Creating plans for the future that protect assets, reduce tax liabilities and make clear final wishes are all part of what I enjoy. I often think you don’t know what you don’t know! And if that’s the case how can you put yourself in a better financial position. Educating people is really key and I love the sense of achievement and pleasure in helping clients to plan for their future. After a long career at Nationwide, I took the opportunity to make a change and in 2021, alongside Caroline Allen we launched Yorkshire Financial Planning Ltd. The decision to set up our own practice was an easy one as for a long time we have shared a vision about how financial advice should be focused on client relationships and being there for every life event – be it big or small. We are an all-female team of financial advisors giving advice you can trust. We pride ourselves on putting you first, keeping things simple and being straight talkers. Choosing the right person to give you advice can be a big decision. At Yorkshire Financial Planning, we are proud to be clear about our philosophy. Whoever you are, whatever you do, this is what you can expect from us: • We'll help protect and grow your wealth by creating you a bespoke master plan • We'll put you and your goals first, empowering you to make the right decisions at the right time • We'll be by your side, and on your side, every step of the way So if that’s what you’re after we’d love to hear from you. The value of your investments can go down as well as up. You could get back less than you invested.
