Client feedback

“It’s a pleasure working with key members of the PSGS team: their experience and leadership means that they know how to get the job done, working in partnership with fellow trustees, employers and advisers to achieve the best result for members.”

Mark Smith,

Partner at Taylor Wessing

“Very responsive to any queries we have and proactive in managing our scheme to the best. Very happy with the support we are getting.”

Caroline Rand ,

Historic Royal Palaces

“Colin provides expert trusteeship. He guides former employees not familiar with legal constraints and restrictions - he is aware of them and helps solve problems - very happy.”

“I found the trustee training really beneficial, highly recommended. I am not a trustee, I represent the employer and I think it will be valuable for me in future, having a better understanding of the trustees' perspective.”

Dave Strain,

Royal Yachting Association

“I learnt more than I expected to at the trustee training course. A good introduction to the trustee role.”

Rob Hartley,

RSPCA

“Great communication and practical help.”

In my latest article I look at the proposed changes along with the principles underpinning existing data protection laws, the risks involved in outsourcing and some of the safeguards trustees can put in place.
