Wealth manager and Financial Planner Tilney Smith & Williamson has joined the Spinal Injuries Association (SIA)’s network of partners to help support spinal chord injured people’s financial wealth.

Tilney will offer SIA members free initial consultations to discuss their financial circumstances and needs.

In the UK 2,500 people sustain a spinal chord injury every year, according to the SIA. The association formed its network to help these people who need access to expert information, advice and support after an injury.

Tilney has previously worked with a number of people with spinal chord injuries to help them lead a fulfilled life after their injury.

Ian Gibson, managing partner at Tilney, said: “We are very pleased to partner with Spinal Injury Association. Our team includes specialist Financial Planners, investment managers and technical specialists all dedicated to working with clients who have been affected by spinal cord injuries.”

Tilney Smith & Williamson manages over £52bn of client wealth.

In May the firm reported a 6.7% increase in net inflows to £704.1m for 2020, in its first full year financial results since completing their merger on 1 September. 

The firm is currently running a recruitment drive, with a focus on the South East.
