Some good news and the kind I've been looking forward to sharing for a while now.

Julie Eddicott - some of you will know her, some of you will know of her, not least because she rowed the Atlantic while the rest of us were finding reasons not to - is joining Tilikum and bringing her practice across with her. Her PA Anna Hayles is coming too, which the clients who know Anna will be delighted to hear!

I've known Julie for a while now. I stood in as one of her locums during the row, so I've seen how she looks after people when she isn't even in the room. Teaming up made sense to both of us for the same unglamorous reason: it's a better setup for the people we look after, more hands, more cover, more time spent with clients rather than on the admin around them.

Alongside that, Paolo Scalco is joining us as an adviser – he has a wide-ranging background in family offices and corporate transactions before he came into advice - and he'll be working closely with Julie and me as we settle everyone in.

If you're one of the clients coming across to us over the coming weeks, welcome. This has been quietly going on behind the scenes for some time and it’s great to be able to finally confirm it.

Thanks to all those who have worked, supported and helped us with this transition.
