What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?
I needed sound advice on savings and investments. I believe the initial connection came through a building society.
How has Dawn Elkington helped you?
In addition to the continued sound investment advice Dawn was particularly helpful recently finding a loan to bridge a time lag between the purchase and sale of properties. Following this I recommended Dawn to relatives in a similar position.
Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?
Yes
What could they have done better?
Our investments seem sound, rather than spectacular.

Thank you for taking the time to send a review. Much appreciated.Review

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?
Thought I might be able to retire a couple of years before state pension age, but needed a financial expert to confirm. Also to decide which monies to use and how best to invest.
How has Dawn Elkington helped you?
Dawn came up with clear easy to follow information and visuals. She always speaks in terms I understand. Any advice requested is always answered.
Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?
I left work confident I am optimising my money usage.
What could they have done better?
Dawn is amazing. Dawn listened carefully to all my requests and queries and never tried to push me to put money in areas I would find morally wrong, appreciating that I know money is important, but it is not the source of happiness.
Dawn:
Thank you so much for your kind words. it is really appreciated.
