Personal Insurance

Insurance advice built around your situation

Your ability to earn an income can be an important part of your financial life. We start by understanding what needs protecting, then consider suitable provider options available within the agreed scope. We explain how we are paid before you decide whether to proceed.

Protection begins with context

A considered review starts with the life behind the cover.

The important questions are about the people, commitments, income, and choices that need to remain steady if something changes.

Why This Advice Matters

Insurance should reflect the life you have built

Your needs can change with income, debt, dependants, work, business ownership, and the cover you already hold. A review helps make those considerations visible before you decide whether any action is appropriate.

We start every conversation with a needs analysis — understanding your income, debts, dependants, and existing cover — before making any recommendation. The aim is to help you understand relevant gaps, overlaps, costs, and trade-offs.

We work with a range of major providers and compare the available options against what matters in your situation. We explain any relevant provider payments, costs and trade-offs before you decide, then review your cover as life changes.

Our Approach
01
Understand what matters
We map your income, debts, dependants and existing cover to understand the gap between what you have and what you may need.
02
Consider suitable options
We consider suitable options available within scope and explain the costs, trade-offs, provider payments, and relevant conflicts in plain language.
03
Clear recommendation
We present a written recommendation with the reasoning, costs and trade-offs explained in plain language.
04
Ongoing Review
We review your cover annually and whenever your circumstances change — new child, new mortgage, redundancy, salary increase.
Who We Help

We advise people at every stage of life

Families with a mortgage

If you or your partner couldn't work, how long could you keep up repayments? We assess the gap between what you have and what you actually need.

Business owners

Your income is tied to your ability to show up. We advise on personal cover that protects your lifestyle regardless of what happens to the business.

People with existing cover

Most people set up insurance once and never review it. Life changes — income grows, families expand, mortgages increase. We check whether your cover still fits.

High earners without a plan

A high income creates a large protection gap. We ensure your cover is proportionate to what you'd actually lose, not a generic default amount.

What We Look At

A thorough assessment before any recommendation

Your income and what it supports

We start with what you earn, what you owe, and who depends on you. This tells us the minimum protection floor before we look at anything else.

Your existing cover

Most people have some cover — through work, a previous adviser, or a bank. We map what you have, identify gaps and overlaps, and tell you honestly what's worth keeping.

Different ways to protect what matters

Life cover, support if income stops, cover for serious illness and permanent disability each do different jobs. We explain the choices in plain language and recommend only what fits your situation.

Available provider options

We consider suitable options from providers available within the agreed scope, including what is covered, what is not covered, the price, features and information relevant to your situation. Before you decide, we explain how we are paid and any relevant conflicts.
