At home

Huw’s loves are reading, rugby and ‘rithmatic! He’s restricted himself to exclusively reading fiction at bedtime however, as anything else will leave his mind whirring for hours.

Although he no longer plays or coaches senior rugby, Huw helps coach younger age groups in the sport.

Huw enjoys walking and running but has confessed his calves are no longer as enthusiastic. As a result, he has reluctantly joined the legions of Lycra-clad dads on two wheels. Huw is married with two children.

The important stuff

All financial advisers in the UK must be registered on the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) register and hold a valid Statement of Professional Standing (SPS). In an age where financial scams pose a real threat, it’s important to make sure you don’t take financial advice from anyone who doesn’t appear on the FCA Register or hold a valid SPS.
