💼 Work & Role

• What’s your role at Financial Options Group?

I’m a Financial Adviser with a niche specialism in property and insurance strategies. I focus on using debt intelligently to structure portfolios alongside other investments—ensuring clients remain secure and protected at every step.

The challenge and creativity. I get to build truly bespoke strategies that deliver real value, unlock opportunities, and open doors people didn’t think were possible. No two days are ever the same.

• How long have you been here?

We’ve just passed the 365-day milestone—and both myself and my clients wouldn’t change it for the world.

• Three words to describe your work vibe:

Magnetic. Enthusiastic. Passionate.

🌍 Personality & Lifestyle

• Dream travel destination:
Antarctica — I don’t know anyone who’s been, so I’ll go and change that.

• Currently reading/watching:
Re-reading Meditations by Marcus Aurelius — timeless mindset lessons.

• Most-used app:
Trading 212 — it’s been an interesting few months in the markets!

• Film you never get bored of:
Any of the Star Wars saga — legendary films.

• Time travel destination:
Back to 100 AD to see the Roman Empire at its peak — a culture that still fascinates me.

We’re incredibly proud to be sponsoring this special occasion for Bury Hospice as they celebrate their 35th birthday 💜

For 35 years, Bury Hospice has provided outstanding care and support to patients and their families, and this milestone marks an incredible journey since welcoming their very first patient on 24 June 1991.

This event is a celebration of something truly special — the amazing volunteers who give their time, energy and compassion all year round. From catering to gardening, fundraising to retail, their dedication touches every part of the hospice.

To put that into perspective:

✨ 490 volunteers supported the hospice this year
✨ 49,620 hours generously given
✨ Equivalent to over £630,000 in value to the charity

These are not just numbers — they represent a community coming together to make a real difference.

We’re honoured to support the 35th Birthday Party & Celebration of Volunteers this Sunday, helping give something back to those who give so much.

An afternoon of tea, celebration, and appreciation — and a well-deserved thank you to every volunteer involved.
