Lovewell Blake Financial Planning Limited

Overview:

At Lovewell Blake Financial Planning Limited, our role is to help you make the right financial decisions, not only so your investments work better for you but to help you achieve your overall financial goals. This involves identifying your short and longer term objectives, understanding your investment motives and ensuring all advice is consistent with your own goals.

We are part of the Lovewell Blake group, one of the largest independent accountancy firms in East Anglia. We have no ownership links, distribution or performance agreements with any insurance or Investment Company. This means you can be sure our advice is not compromised by other commercial influences. Our advice is totally impartial.

20 years ago to cover the needs of particular professions and business sectors – today we offer over 12 specialisms.

We serve more than 10,000 business and personal clients throughout East Anglia and beyond. We also believe in supporting the community in which we work through for example the LB 150 Challenge, commemorating our 150th anniversary by raising £150,000 over five years for local good causes.

Well aware of the global market in which the UK now operates, we are members of HLB International, one of the leading international accountancy networks.
