Accreditations and awards

When you’re weighing up which Financial Planner to work with, it’s important to pick a firm you can place your full trust in. With us, you’ll work with experts who follow the most rigorous standards when it comes to offering advice.

A mark of distinction

We were one of the first practices in Yorkshire to earn Chartered status from the Chartered Insurance Institute. This award demonstrates a professional commitment to raising standards of knowledge, capability, and ethical practice.

We are delighted to announce that all seven of our Financial Planners who feature on VouchedFor have been awarded ‘Top Rated’ status in the 2024 VouchedFor list.

We have won the ‘Customer Service Team of the Year’ award at the Yorkshire Financial Awards 2024. We are over the moon that the whole team has been recognised for working together to deliver the best possible client outcomes.

We’ve been part of New Model Adviser’s Top 100 Advice Firms in the UK each year since 2016. We always strive for excellence within our sector, something that’s recognised by this prestigious accolade. It’s one we hope to retain for years to come.

We’ve made it into the FTAdviser’s Top 100 list for the past two years. We’re extremely proud to hold this distinction, and it feels great for all the hard work we put in for each and every one of our clients to be recognised in such a positive way.
