Free finance advice

Questa Chartered is among 35 firms nation wide to offer the free financial planning surgeries to help more people understand the benefits.

The Whitehills Business Park firm has a team of more than nine financial planners and free surgeries are available for individuals seeking professional advice and expertise about how to maximise their finances.

The national awareness week is organised by the Institute of Financial Planning.

Chartered financial planner, Stuart Dewin said: “Financial planning is at the heart of a strong financial future and we want to encourage more and more people to get a better understanding of their financial aims and objectives.

“Not everyone has the confidence or knowledge to navigate their way through their finances and we hope our free financial planning surgeries will help open people’s eyes to the benefits of trusted, professional advice.”

Steve Gazzard, CEO of the Institute of Financial Planning, said: “The old adage says ‘if you fail to plan, then plan to fail’. With something as important as our financial future we can’t afford to fail.

“Financial Planning Week aims to inspire us to take some simple steps to improving our financial fitness, so we’re on track to achieving the future we want. It gives people the opportunity to meet expert financial planners on a ‘no strings attached’ basis.”
