password protected (member) areas, eCommerce, online videos & podcasts,
image galleries, forums, dynamic tools such as online calculators,

significantly less. Benefits include bespoke template design, built-in

Dr Paul Thomas
County Management
Bio
I work to improve business performance by inspiring people to exceed their own expectations, whether they work on the shop floor or in the board room.
County Management Consultants Ltd offers psychometric testing, personality profiling, team development, individual and group coaching and mentoring. My personal experience extends from my apprenticeship through to board level director, and that means I have first-hand experience of many of the problems encountered in the corporate world.
Early in my career I developed an interest in answering the question “why do people do what they do, and why so often don’t they do what we want them to do?”
I am qualified as a top level user of occupational tests with the British Psychological Society which helps me add a quantitative understanding of personality to the qualitative appreciation I have built up through years of practical experience.

David Dearden
Withybrook Financial Consultants Ltd
Bio
I am an independent Financial Adviser and feel it is important to deal with all aspects of financial advice from insuring the lives of young parents, to planning for inheritance. Almost all my clients have been referred to me by other clients or professional contacts.
My real specialism is helping clients who are about to retire, as there are so many important options to consider and the financial implications last for the rest of your life and the lives of those you leave behind. It is vital to consider all the options, not only the ones that your provider or scheme trustee puts in front of you.
I believe that experience is very important when dealing with client’s investments but most important listen is to what the client wants. In order to achieve my first meeting is to understand your requirements and this is free of charge.

Utility Warehouse
Bio
I am a distributor for Utility Warehouse. I use the services myself and am a believer in the savings it has given me. Utility Warehouse is in the unique position of helping customers save money while paying for their household utility bills and likewise for their business bills.
It is the only provider covering communications and energy services. It has a price promise guarantee so if you think the company has not saved you money in the first year it will recompense you by doubling the difference back to you.
There is no time contract for the utility services and should you choose to swap back to your old provider you are under no obligation.
Utility Warehouse is an innovative company and is an exiting stage of development and has just introduced feed in tariffs for people with solar roof panels. Also, existing and new customers can fix their energy costs at the current rate for 3/4 years so as other providers put up their bills UW customers have the choice to freeze theirs.
