They are specialists in all aspects of financial planning and work closely with you with a holistic, collaborative approach to ensure your aims and objectives for your future are met. They understand circumstances change. The annual meeting is of great reassurance; it shows your situation in a number of formats that make it easy to understand. This allows you to plan and adapt - especially if your circumstances have changed ( as mine did in August 2023 when I broke my leg). I was able to access advice and guidance to help me make some key financial decisions and gave me peace of mind at a time when I was managing my own unforeseen, health challenges. You meet other clients each year and receive a regular briefing through their great magazine UNLEASHED.

“What a superb store, so much to look at, fantastic quality, great for presents.”

“This review is particularly for the store manager Jo who was extremely kind, understanding and helpful despite the dilemma at hand. About 2 months ago I can to boux avenue for a fitting and immediately from the fitting and continously since I found all the bras I bought were cutting into my sides around my ribs. Unfortunately I live in west Cornwall and today was the first opportunity I had to return to the store and raise the issue I was having. I also have some confusion about the receipt that I swore was emailed but it turns out it wasn't. Jo put me in for another fitting and found the band was fitting as they would recommend but she listened to me. She let me show her the issues I was having, the marks I had gathered and understood my discomfort so she helped me get refitted and agreed to swap my original bras for a band wider that I found far more comfortable. She didnt have to do this, I didnt have a receipt and it had been quite a while. She made a very fair and valid point that if I had rang sooner, even if I was unable to get to them they would atleast be aware of the problem and find it easier to resolve. If anyone has an issues I would suggest to do this, I should have done this. I am massively appreciative to Jo for helping me, I am already far more comfortable and its genuinely taken quite a bit of stress off my mind. She also gave me pointers about strap positioning, and she did this without judgment. I would thoroughly recommend Boux Avenue Plymouth, I wish I had pushed more at the time of my original fit about the discomfort but that is for me to learn from and understand a querk for me that likely does not apply to the majority of people they see. Thank you Jo Also the maid with shiny blue eye shadow and mermaid earrings is absolutely fantastic! Im sorry I didnt catch your name, you really made me laugh when you introduced my partner to the perfume samples.”

“I am a bit of an ostrich when it comes to pensions and finance in general, and put off discussions about money as much as possible! But I finally had to tackle it head on, and on recommendation from several friends, got in contact with Duncan, who was fantastic. He took the time to go through all my financial options in a clear, thorough and genuinely supportive way. I never felt rushed or overwhelmed - in fact I was left feeling much more confident and reassured about my decisions. He was incredibly kind, explained everything without jargon and made a complicated process feel manageable. Highly recommend!”
