Planning a financially savvy future for families pays dividends as Danny Hattersley Financial Planning expands

A family first approach to financial planning is paying dividends for North Staffordshire based Danny Hattersley.

Danny Hattersley has added two new team members and relocated to a larger office since taking on a long-established St James’ Place practice a year ago.

With four children at home, Danny made a decision to emphasise the importance of financial planning for families and emphasising that saving strategies are important for everyone.

“There’s a perception that financial planners are only looking to work with wealthy, often older people, but that simply isn’t true,” explained Danny.

“Of course we work with high worth individuals, but I’m a dad in my thirties, and I’m keen on getting everyone to start saving as early as possible.

“For example, compound interest means you earn interest  not only on your investment but also on the interest that money gains. Think of it as a snowball constantly getting bigger, if you invest £100 at five percent, you earn £5 interest in year one, but you earn interest on that interest in year two, and so on.

“The sooner you start saving, the better. Even if it is only starts off as a small saving plan.”

Danny, a certified financial adviser,  added: “I’ve just retired from football having played many seasons for Redgate Clayton in the Premier Division of the Staffordshire County Senior League, so I’m in constant contact with people with young families who want to save into a pension.”

Danny is also keen on giving financial advise in other ways and will go into companies to hold workshops for staff.

“I want to see as many people as possible being financially savvy and a workshop is a good way for company directors to support their staff.

The business previously had a two person office at the Lymedale Business Centre, Newcastle, but have taken on a bigger office to accommodate a larger team.

He has recently taken on client administrator Kate Langley and office administrator Ellie Crosby to work alongside him and his wife and office manager, Beth Hattersley.
