Client Testimonials

"Try Affinity; I was able to gain an insight into what is possible, what is achievable, and what is reasonable in comparative terms. Before speaking with them, I had scant understanding of the flexibility of the TPA scheme. I was reticent about negotiating retirement plans with my governors, even though they are supportive: talking about money can be embarrassing. Let Mr Muirhead expose the issues for you!

“Like most of my male colleagues, I am the main breadwinner in my family, and yet under the TPA scheme, none of my early service counts for spouses' benefits.  Affinity showed me ways to ensure that if I do shuffle off this mortal coil before my husband; he will still be able to be a merry widower. Perish the thought!
 
“The service is tailor made, cost effective for both you and the school, and will help you to manage retirement issues for all your staff."
Gwen Randall - Headmistress, Framlingham College
