Financial planning for Ormskirk
Ormskirk is a busy market town with a university, a hospital and a parish church famous for having both a tower and a spire. That mix shows up in the people we hear from: university and NHS staff, teachers, local business owners, and retired couples in the villages around Aughton and Scarisbrick.
Public sector pensions are generous but complicated, and the choices you make around retirement can’t always be undone. We help you understand yours and fit it together with everything else.
This page also covers Aughton and Scarisbrick.

What Ormskirk clients usually ask us
- NHS and teachers’ pensions When to retire, whether to take a lump sum, and how your scheme pension sits with any personal pensions and the State Pension. We model the options before you commit.
- Additional contributions Topping up through your scheme or a personal pension can make sense, especially for higher-rate taxpayers. We compare the routes.
- Family and inheritance Scheme pensions for dependants are outside inheritance tax, but other pots and the house are not. We look at the whole family picture.

I have enlisted the help of two leading members of Seventy Financial Planning over the past few years – Chris Riley and Andrew Brierley. Both have been fantastic and relaxed in their friendly Yorkshire manner! In fact all of the team at Seventy are great. Highly recommended.
Seventy brought real clarity to my personal situation, highlighting areas that need attention and which were performing well. I appreciated the genuine desire to understand my personal situation. The unhurried and professional approach made Seventy a pleasure to work with.
My wife and I first contacted Chris at Seventy some 10 years ago. We were very impressed with him and the advice we were given, and have been ever since. It is good to know that our finances are being taken care of by such a competent adviser and I would recommend Chris’s services to anyone.
The team at Seventy Financial Planning have provided my wife and I with invaluable expert advice and support over a number of years. Their services are very professional and first class. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone seeking independent financial advice.
Seventy has been a real lifesaver for us. Our investments with a previous firm were rapidly depleting. This would have resulted in severe difficulties for us. Seventy stabilised and grew our investments. That this was achieved in the difficult markets we are seeing is impressive.
Chris from Seventy sat with me and assessed my needs and how risk averse I am. He then provided me with a full review of findings and investment options. I am now in a better financial position than I would have been without his advice and I have been able to take early retirement.
