Testimonials
Dear Keith, I am writing to thank you so much for meeting with me and helping me understand my NHS pension contribution. Your detailed explanation of how the system works was fantastic, and it has given me a clear understanding of how I can prepare for my retirement. Your expertise and guidance have been invaluable, and I appreciate the time and effort you took to provide me with such an informative session. I am now equipped with the knowledge and confidence to plan my pension contribution better.

“Thanks for your time on the phone today it was invaluable. I would add the comments below for you to pass on; Had a good conversation with Ross today re my pension situation. What a refreshing experience of find someone who knows the absolute detail of the schemes and has a wealth of expertise to share! It is increasingly rare to find this knowledge now so I will be contacting Ross again when I come to finally retire. I would also add there is a danger of people making decisions now and without this expertise – it could lead to financial difficulties in some cases. Thanks again will be in touch.”

“It went very well. They helped me understand the pension scheme and my years working at another Trust were all on my record. Before this, I didn’t really understand the two different pensions. It would be very useful to others, I’m sure.”
