It's World Financial Planning Day 🎉, so we thought we'd hand the spotlight over to the people who do the planning!

Seven advisers, seven different personalities, and, as it turns out, a shared love of long walks, football and questionable holiday decisions. 😂

This week is National Work-Life Week, and with our financial year drawing to a close, it only feels right to take a proper look back and do a work-life in review: the 2025/2026 edition.

While most of what we do involves plans, numbers and long-term thinking, we also know a thing or two about having a good time while we're at it!

Here's what our year looked like:

🎅 Secret Santa, pizza and pyjama party in the office before our Christmas closure

🍷 Christmas wouldn't be complete without a full team night out!

💐 Pipe-cleaner flowers and affirmation notes for Valentine's Day from the Wellbeing Team

🥞 Pancake Day treats (would you be team chocolate, strawberry or caramel sauce?💭)

🐣 A surprisingly competitive Easter egg hunt

🏅 An even more competitive Office Olympics

🎳 Bowling night out (can you tell we enjoy some friendly competition👀)

☕ A few lunch time coffee walks

👟 Supporting each other and/or running together at Race for Life

🌈 A very colourful Pride picnic (someone even baked blue bread!)

🌍 Team building day in York, racing across the world

Honestly, the list goes on!

Here's to whatever 2026/2027 has in store, because if this year's anything to go by, it's going to be a good'un. 🥂

Budget Predictions Bingo is back 🎯

Every year, the same headlines do the rounds. See how many of these you spot over the next few weeks:

✅ "Experts warn of major changes"
✅ "This could be the last chance to..."
✅ "Sources suggest the Chancellor is considering..."
✅ Someone on LinkedIn who is "very concerned"

Full house? Congratulations, you've survived another Budget season.

Here's the thing though: none of it is confirmed until it's actually announced.

We'll let you know when that happens 🤍

Happy International Podcast Day!

Did you know we have our very own podcast?

Let's Talk Money & Marriage was born from something quite simple...

Jess and Gregg already spent most of their evenings talking about money, life and the questions clients ask every day, so they thought, why not bring everyone else into the conversation too? 😄

Across two seasons, they've chatted about everything from investing and retirement to mortgages, budgeting and even whether you should talk about money on a first date! 💍💷

There are plenty of laughs, the occasional disagreement, some brilliant guest appearances, and lots of straightforward conversations about topics that often feel more complicated than they need to.

If you're looking for something easy to listen to on your commute, while walking the dog or making a start on the housework, why not give it a try? 🎧

You can find Let's Talk Money & Marriage over on our website: https://informedfinancialplanning.co.uk/lets-talk-money-marriage/

Or you can even find us on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4KtW4OZHBJI3MZca4Owef5?si=1526ed3c5a734426

💷 It's the final post in our UK Savings Week series! 💷

We've explored how saving looks different for business owners and high earners.

To finish, let's talk about retirement.

Having cash available brings peace of mind. There's no question about that. 😊

But holding more cash than you realistically need can mean your money isn't working as hard as it could over the years ahead.

The goal isn't to have the biggest savings balance.
It's to have the right balance.

Enough flexibility to feel confident today, while giving the rest of your wealth the opportunity to grow.

Because good financial planning isn't about treating every pound the same.

It's about giving every pound a purpose. 💙

We hope this week's Savings Week series has given you something to think about. 😊

If you'd like to explore whether your savings are working as hard as they could be, we're always happy to chat.



The value of investments and any income from them can fall as well as rise and you may not get back the original amount invested.

💷 Welcome to Part 2 of our UK Savings Week series! 💷

Earlier this week, we talked about business owners and the difference between business wealth and personal wealth.

Today, we're turning to high earners.

Saving regularly is a fantastic habit. 🙌

But once you've built a healthy cash reserve, it's worth asking a different question...

Is every pound still doing the job you need it to?

Some money needs to be easy to access.
Some is there for opportunities.
And some is there to support your future self.

The key isn't simply saving more.

It's making sure your money has a purpose.

We'll round off the series later this week by looking at one of the biggest questions for those approaching or enjoying retirement. 😊

💷 It's UK Savings Week! 💷

Over the next few days, we'll be looking at what "saving" really means for three different groups of people, because the right approach isn't the same for everyone.

First up... business owners. 👋

When your business is doing well, it's easy to feel financially secure.

After all, there's money in the company.

But here's the question...

How much of that security belongs to the business, and how much belongs to you?

For many business owners, the company quietly becomes everything: the income, the pension, the emergency fund and the long-term plan.

Good financial planning is about making sure your personal future isn't entirely tied to your business success.

Join us later this week, when we'll look at a different savings question for high earners. 👀

As we reach the end of another financial year at IFP, we're taking a moment to reflect. 💙

Not on targets or numbers, on people.

This year, we've had conversations about business sales that have been years in the making.

We've helped families navigate difficult moments they never expected to face.

We've celebrated retirements, new ventures and life-changing decisions.

And through it all, we've been reminded that financial planning has never really been about money.

It's about giving people the confidence to make decisions that feel right for them, their families and their future.

On World Gratitude Day, we'd simply like to say thank you.

To every client who has trusted us with life's biggest questions.

To those who've been with us for decades.

And to those just beginning their journey with us.

It's a privilege we never take for granted.

Here's to another year of thoughtful conversations, careful planning and helping good people make confident decisions.

Thank you. 💙
