About Farley
Be prepared to hear about our key team member called Farley, the Labrador Retriever.
He first arrived into the family as a 'Guide Dogs for the Blind' puppy but didn't quite make their grade.
Quite a story, involving Emma hood-winking Ian into having a puppy, then Ian keeping Farley after Guide Dogs asked if we would take him back!
Farley is the office's team official stamp-licker, guest-greeter, and foot-warmer, and doesn't mind being the centre of attention if guests insist...

About Ian Francis
Ian Francis is an energetic, wickedly funny, independent financial adviser, who helps his clients build confidence with their money and how they can make choices to enjoy their lives. As the founder of Chestnut Financial Services Limited, Ian has helped nearly 1,000 clients build their wealth, get mortgages, pay for care, and enjoy their retirement. He'll share family and client successes. Ian has featured in many magazines, newspapers and the BBC, as an expert financial adviser, focused on personal finance and helping solve either questions or problems people have.
Ian has been married to Emma, his best friend, tireless listener, and greatest encourager, for twenty years. He lives in and loves the Lincolnshire village of Bassingham. He has three sons, three grandsons, and enjoys his family time, food, wine, rugby, and walking Farley.
Having joined financial services in his 20s, following a career in the civil service, Ian has had several senior roles involving independent financial advice and regulation. So Ian is well placed to give high-quality advice on all sorts of problems. In addition to a wide range of qualifications, accreditations, and professional memberships, Ian has also passed specialist exams for equity release and long-term care advice.
We are all a team in the office, working together to help all our clients get the best service and support, solving our client's problems, and making their lives financially happier.

About Emma Francis
Emma manages the office & team in Bassingham, guarding all that goes on!
Having already cycled in northern India to raise money for women's cancer charities, Emma's next expedition for the same charities will be in Sri Lanka.
A proud mum, nanny (and very lucky wife), and talented artist, the world rightly revolves around Emma.
Being the lead team member you will usually hear Emma answer the phone and make any visitor most welcome.
