James Curry CFP™ Chartered FCSI

Director and Chartered Financial Planner

James is your point of contact for financial advice at our Cockermouth office. As a Chartered Financial Planner and SOLLA-accredited adviser, he helps clients consider their wider finances alongside the decisions that matter now, including retirement, family wealth and later-life care.

Working with James starts with a conversation about your circumstances, the people who depend on you and your priorities. He brings those details into a personal plan, explaining the reasoning behind any recommendations so you can understand how they relate to the future you want.

James established the firm to put this approach into practice. Read why he founded rockwealth Lake District.
