Financial planning isn’t just for the mega rich and famous. Since 2011, Wealth of Advice have been helping hard-working people confidently retire – earlier and happier than they expected. We know how big a decision that is. Our clients have grafted for decades to build their retirement pot – they’re not about to be ripped off now. So we don’t try to woo clients with fancy fish tanks, gold-foiled brochures and outlandish promises. The only promise we make is that our advice and service will be so good, that in a few years time they’ll be recommending us to their friends.
As completely independent financial planners, our clients benefit from us being able to offer advice on all financial products and services available across the entire market place.
We're honest about our fees - we always agree our charges upfront, disclosing them to you in a clear and transparent way.
Most of all, we work hard for those who've worked hard. Our goal is to keep on grafting, so you don't have to.
We offer financial planning in a range of different areas, including pensions / retirement planning, investment, protection and estate planning.
