WHO ARE WE?

With over over 30 years experience within Adult Health and Social Care; empowering people to take control of their finances and well-being is what we do best. We set up Cheshire Independent Agents in early 2018 to encourage and support people to increase their income, plan for their future and to ease the pressures of money management.
