A little bit about Claire
Claire has been helping and working with clients to achieve their goals in a variety of different roles for the last 30 years, half of which has been in advisory roles. She is extremely passionate about her role and spends time building strong long-term relationships with clients, helping to firstly identify goals and objectives, but more importantly helping to understand/educate how these can be achieved.
Claire is experienced in advising HNW clients on their investments and wider financial planning objectives, including pensions and tax planning, and as well as providing ‘peace of mind’ to clients who are already successfully on target to meet their goals.
Claire prides herself as a holistic financial planner, advising in a range of areas including Retirement Planning, Investments, Protection and Tax planning.
Outside of work, Claire is married with children and a Miniature Poodle called Willow. In her spare time, she enjoys spending time with family, socialising with friends, going to the gym, walking, and putting her feet up with a good book.

An adviser’s insight
Spend wisely and save smartly
June can be one of the best months of the year with summer well and truly on the way. But with all those holidays, weddings, anniversaries, and other spending, it can also be one of the most expensive too.
While you should be focusing on the present, it’s also important to be aware of how major outlays now can have a significant impact on your financial security in later life. A cashflow model can give you a clear picture of the consequences your spending and saving can have on your future.
It’s also good to know about the ways you can use your tax-free allowances wisely on certain expenditures. For example, your gifting allowances can let you pass on up to £3,000 a year to your loved ones without it being added to the value of your estate.*
Together, we can make a plan to help you live your life to the full now, while still having the retirement you want later on.
