Reviews
STEPHEN, APR 24
“Team efficiently led by Zahib under the tutorage of Katie, focusing on the key issues early, rather than the routine chaf, whilst working effectively with our central team and local teams. NED’s like the comms, telling us the issues rather than maybe other advisors telling us how wonderful they are. I’ve just about got used to the colour scheme 😉 . Already recommended CP – says it all!”
“Thanks for your detailed feedback, Stephen. And, as always, thanks for recommending CP.”
