Richard is the oldest Member of the Camargue team. He started his career in 1976 at the age of 26; not for nothing do colleagues and clients call him 'the older and wiser financial adviser'!

Very much a 'general practitioner' Richard advises clients in all area of their financial planning. As he and his clients have grown older, however, he has developed a wide knowledge of Inheritance Tax Planning. Within Camargue, colleagues often seek to utilise Richard's expertise in this important area.

Married with 2 daughters and 3 grandchildren, Richard lives and works in the Cheshire village of Pickmere. He is a keen Private Pilot and horse rider and an active member of the village Parish Council.

Anne’s guiding principle in her practice as a Financial Consultant has been to sustain long-term relationships with her clients; many of whom have been taking her advice for over 20 years. This means that Anne can be sure the advice she gives achieves the best outcome for the client and when their circumstances change Anne can help them to deal with those changes.

As a former teacher Anne has developed expertise in dealing with public-sector employees and this is a big proportion of her client base. Anne’s happy clients recommend her to others in their situation. Many of her clients are women who often find it easier to confide their financial objectives to another woman.

In her spare time Anne gardens in the adverse circumstances at 1100 feet in the Pennines, walks the dog on the moors and reads fiction and history.

Ross has been with Camargue Chambers since we began back in 2011 and has worked in Financial Services for the last 12 years. He has a broad experience in dealing with High Net Worth Individuals from a personal and business perspective.

Ross’ main mantra is to add value to his clients' lives by using his own chosen expertise in protection and also by calling in the appropriate expertise from within the firm. Ross will go that extra mile to make sure he finds every way possible to add value.

Over the last 12 years Ross has built up a good network of trusted associated businesses so that when there is something that falls outside of our remit then it is very likely Ross knows who would be best to help a client in that particular specialist area.

As an avid golfer he is always very open to a game of golf at any opportunity being the very sociable and outgoing chap that he is.

Ian started his career in 1989 with Refuge Assurance as a Financial Adviser and was responsible for providing financial advice to clients. He joined Royal London Insurance in 1991, again as a Financial Consultant, where he was involved in more complex financial advice.

In 2003 Ian joined HBOS in the bancassurance market place and enjoyed a further 9 years helping customers to save money, make money, avoid tax and protect their assets and family. Since then Ian has worked as a Planner Manager at Nationwide Building Society and has now joined Camargue Chambers LLP.

Ian has witnessed the number of qualified advisers fall from in excess of 200,000 in 1989 to approximately 22,000. With far fewer advisers servicing the same number of customers and the onset of the Retail distribution Review (RDR) from 1st January 2013 which put an end to the previous “commission based” industry, Ian feels that there has never been a more vital time to help clients with their Financial Planning needs and to find out: what’s important about money to them?
