How we work

We believe that financial planning is not all about your money; it’s about you, your life and what you want to get out of it. So, whether that is working towards a happy retirement, long-term financial security or protecting your loved ones, your goal is our goal.

 

LONG TERM PLANNING

"James has always given me good advice. I have saved money with James’s advice and made money with his advice. He treats each client differently depending on their circumstances shows a genuine commitment to his customers. James has helped us plan for our upcoming retirement."

Our Story

In 1978, John Hitchell had just taken the difficult decision to leave a secure job with a high street bank and was looking for the next challenge. He hated the corporate, target-driven culture of the banking industry and felt there must be a better way to treat clients.

 

It was fair to say the bank was very traditional, even insisting that John shave off his beloved beard as ‘it was scaring the older customers.’ However, the final straw was having found his dream home, his mortgage application being denied because it ‘had more bedrooms than he needed,’ only to discover that his manager had bought the house instead.

ONE SIZE DOESN'T FIT ALL

We appreciate financial planning is not all about your money – it’s about you, your life and what you want to get out of it. So whether that is working towards a happy retirement, financial security or protecting your loved ones – we can help make it happen.
