AMONG the
first group of companies in the North West to sign up to a brand new
Prince’s Trust initiative being piloted exclusively in the area,
Liverpool-based Fraser Wealth Management is once again leading the
way. Cementing its reputation as a firm with an emphasis on
innovation, Fraser Wealth Management has become a member of the
Prince’s Trust North West Leadership Group.
The group, which is the first of its kind in the country, has
attracted some of the most influential business leaders from across
the area with the aim of directly impacting the lives of young
people in the North West. It plans to hold 4 events a year,
which will provide its members with valuable and unique networking
opportunities in addition to facilitating exclusive lectures
presented by guest speakers.
Kevin Gillibrand, director of Fraser Wealth Management, says:-
“We’re absolutely committed to the Prince’s Trust North West
Leadership Group, it has some fantastic aims and we’re very pleased
to be a part of it. We hope that we will be able to contribute
a great deal to the Group and have the opportunity to engage with
some of the young entrepreneurs involved with the Prince’s Trust and
perhaps act as mentors.”
Julia Worthington, fundraising manager – private sector, at Prince’s
Trust says:- “It’s fantastic that Fraser Wealth Management
have signed up to the North West Leadership Group and are helping to
shape this pilot programme. The Group will help to build
sustained funding streams for Trust programmes, track local
government agendas on skills and development, and assist young
people to move into employment. In short, the presence of the Group
and all of its members within the region will definitely enable far
more of the North West’s young people to realise their potential.”
Fraser Wealth Management has a progressive approach to corporate and
social responsibility. The company has held ‘Investors in People’
status since November 2005, actively encourages its staff to engage
in further training opportunities and frequently takes part in
charity fundraising initiatives. Fraser’s charitable activity
will be reaching a peak this summer as one of the firm’s directors,
