Our focus has always been helping people make confident financial decisions, whether that's planning for retirement, buying a home, protecting their family, growing their wealth or navigating life's bigger financial milestones. 

That said, when independent industry experts recognise the work we're doing, it's something we're incredibly proud of. 

Financial Services Firm of the Year 2026 

Earlier this year, we were named Financial Services Firm of the Year 2026 at the Midlands Enterprise Awards, hosted by SME News. 

It's an award that recognises businesses demonstrating excellence within their industry, but for us, it represents something much simpler. 

It reflects the hard work that happens every day behind the scenes. The conversations with clients. The planning. The problem-solving. The ongoing support that often continues for many years after someone first becomes a client. 

Financial planning isn't about one-off transactions. It's about building long-term relationships based on trust, understanding and good advice. 

Best Bespoke Financial Planning & Wealth Advisory – Warwickshire 

We were also delighted to receive the Best Bespoke Financial Planning & Wealth Advisory – Warwickshire award at the BFSI Awards. 

One of the things we feel most strongly about is that financial advice shouldn't be one-size-fits-all approach. 

Every client has different goals, different concerns and different circumstances. Someone planning for retirement will need very different advice from a business owner, trustee or first-time investor. 

That's why we take the time to understand what's important to each individual before making recommendations. 

This award recognises that personalised approach and reinforces something we've believed for a long time: the best financial plans are built around people, not products. 

Finalists for Best Client Outcomes 

Of all the recent recognitions, being named a finalist for Best Client Outcomes at the Verve Awards is perhaps the one that resonates most deeply with our team. 

Client outcomes sit at the heart of everything we do. 

After all, successful financial planning isn't about reports, spreadsheets or market updates. It's about helping real people achieve things that matter to them. 

Sometimes that means helping someone feel confident enough to retire. 

Sometimes it's helping a family put plans in place to protect future generations. 

Sometimes it's simply giving someone clarity when they're faced with an important financial decision. 

Being recognised for the impact we have on our clients is something we're incredibly proud of because it reflects the reason Simpson Financial Services exists in the first place. 

A reflection of our team 

Every member of the Simpson Financial Services team plays a part in delivering the service our clients receive. From advisers and administrators to paraplanners and support staff, everyone contributes to the experience our clients have with us. 

These recognitions are a reflection of the knowledge, care and professionalism that our team brings to work every day. 

Thank you to our clients 

Most importantly, we'd like to thank our clients. 

Many people come to us at significant moments in their lives. Retirement. Family changes. Business decisions. Inheritance planning. New opportunities. Unexpected challenges. 

Being trusted to help guide those decisions is something we never take for granted. 

The relationships we've built with our clients are the reason we've been able to achieve these milestones, and we're incredibly grateful for the confidence they place in us. 

While we're proud to celebrate these awards, our focus remains exactly where it's always been: helping people understand their options, make informed decisions and feel more confident about their financial future. 

We're excited about what comes next and look forward to continuing to support our clients for many years to come.
