Seven Financial Planners from York’s PenLife Associates have been recognised as some of the highest-rated advisers in the North of England, thanks to outstanding client feedback.
All seven Financial Planners have earned a place in VouchedFor’s 2025 Top Rated Financial Adviser Guide, published in The Telegraph on 25th June 2025.
The recognition is based on verified client reviews submitted via VouchedFor – the UK’s leading platform for financial and mortgage adviser recommendations.
Deb Jacobs, Director & Chartered Financial Planner at PenLife, commented, “With 40,000 financial and mortgage advisers operating across the UK, we’re delighted to be named in such a selective list. Even more so because the recognition comes directly from our clients’ feedback. It means a lot that they’ve gone out of their way to support us, and we’d like to thank them all. What’s more, only 18 advisers from York made the list – and over a third of these are from PenLife. That’s something we’re really proud of.”
Alex Whitson, Managing Director of VouchedFor, added, “The 2025 Top Rated Guide recognises the financial advisers and coaches who are doing brilliant work for their clients. All the advisers who qualify should be incredibly proud of their achievement – and the great work they do for their clients.”
The VouchedFor platform helps consumers find trusted financial professionals by offering transparent, client-driven reviews. It’s free to use and allows individuals to search based on location and services offered.
This recognition highlights PenLife Associates’ ongoing commitment to delivering outstanding financial advice and building long-term relationships with clients based on trust and integrity.
