President's Message

I am both humbled and delighted to have been chosen as President of the Insurance Institute of Preston and Blackpool.
It truly feels like coming home — it was this very institute that presented me with my ACII back in 1992.
My ambition as President is to support every one of our members, wherever they may be in their career journey. I want our institute to be as open, inclusive, and welcoming as possible — and I’m fortunate to work alongside a fantastic team that shares this vision.
My own background has always been on the financial side of the profession, and I was proud to be part of the first cohort to be awarded the Chartered Financial Planner designation.
