At Sanctuary

I provide support to the advisers so that they can do what they do best – spending quality time with their clients and behind the scenes ensuring that the client is at the heart of everything we do.

At Home

I am married and have a 3-year-old daughter who keeps me busy. I have a passion for music and play the piano. When I do get spare time I enjoy helping out at my family allotment and supporting my local football team.

What were the circumstances that caused you to look for a financial adviser?

Financial advice about transferring an occupational pension into a private pension.


How did they help you?

Helped by giving me advice which was thorough and comprehensive, identifying the pros and cons of each financial option available. Then managing and coordinating the transfer of the pension, from the occupational pension to a private pension and monitoring its performance.


What is your current situation? Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

The pension is now invested in a suitable personal pension, which is appropriate to my individual nears, the outcome has been very favourable.


What could they have done better?

Nothing, I am very satisfied with the advice and services I have received.
