The Sheffield Institute is held in high regard by the CII and across the Local Institute Network due to the fabulous schedule of CPD events, for both Insurance and Financial Services, our work with local education institutions and our increasing number of Sports & Social events for our members. I’m therefore honoured to be President for the year ahead and I plan to carry out my duties in a manner that reflects the professionalism of our Institute.

As well as continuing to move our planned program forward, I’m very passionate about a couple of areas to which I would like to bring some focus:

Financial Education

The lack of financial education in our schools is poor to say the least and this has been highlighted recently by public figures such as Martin Lewis. Personally, I’ve seen the difference Financial Education made to my life and I’d like to do everything possible to ‘spread the word’.
