Navigating your future financial journey, and beyond.
Cherry May Financial Planning Ltd was formed by Lawrie Tawse in 2016 out of a strong desire to establish an independent financial planning service that truly embodied the ethos and values of a business that has client interests at the forefront of every decision.
We provide financial planning and advice to individuals and businesses alike about their long term financial goals and objectives. We’re completely independent of any financial institutions, and we offer financial products from across the whole of the market so clients will always receive fully-informed, impartial advice.
How is Cherry May different?
Firstly, we desire to be different.
We want to be different from the ‘traditional’ Independent Financial Adviser that many people may be familiar with already:
- Different in style, with a personal client touch and jargon-free language;
- Supporting high professional standards within the industry;
- Developing close client relationships, helping to plan and navigate our clients through their financial lives.
Anecdotally, the average age of an adviser is in their mid-fifties so that would suggest a significant change in the demographics within the profession over the next 10 years or so. At Cherry May, we’re proud of the fact that we’re a relatively ‘young’ firm and we’ve started with a 20+ year business plan.
With our own long term focus, we really are with you through life’s financial journey. Every step of the way.
Lawrie Tawse FPFS, Director
After a brief spell in the Royal Navy training as a Helicopter Pilot, Lawrie entered the financial services industry in 2007 – just as the global financial crisis was unfolding.
Progressing through to senior management roles within both regional and national advisory firms, Lawrie experienced first-hand the wide ranging regulatory changes within the financial services industry and developed the operational knowledge to run a successful advisory business.
As a Chartered Financial Planner, Lawrie is committed to maintaining the highest professional and ethical standards in financial services. Whether you’re looking for a comprehensive financial plan with your future goals in mind, an investment strategy to review or simply need advice about a specific financial issue, Cherry May are here to help you on an independent and impartial basis.
We’re focussed on providing a clear and understandable service, and one that is aligned with your own interests and needs – not just a general offering for the mass market.

MIND THE GAP – do you know when you’ll receive your State Pension?
I was speaking at a business event recently and I asked the group this simple question: Do you know when your State Pension age is?
