In the past the Banks and Building Societies have traditionally looked after us but many customers have lost faith and trust in them in recent years. The alternative is to seek out a Financial Adviser, which for many will be a scary prospect. All Financial Advisers are authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority and are charged with providing you as the client suitable Financial Advice. Financial Advisers don’t gamble with your money or guess what the markets are going to do, they use their knowledge, experience and skills to research the market and recommend the most suitable areas for investment that they can. Over the past few months we have seen uncertainty in the financial markets, a change of Prime Minister, a Brexit Vote and I haven’t even mentioned Jeremy Corbyn or Donald Trump. We can’t predict the future but there is likely to be further market uncertainty, whatever happens both here in the UK and in the wider world. Uncertainty may affect the markets in the short term and potentially in the longer term. The question then follows ‘ what should I do with my pension, savings and investments? ‘ You could put your money in the Bank or Building Society, seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser or put it in a suitcase under the bed. Whatever you choose there are risks involved and advantages and disadvantages. We would never advocate putting your money in a suitcase under the bed as inflation, theft or fire could seriously reduce your wealth. If you are going to invest in these uncertain times it is important to choose wisely and make informed decisions about your investments and your future. A Financial Adviser will complete a full factfind, assess your attitude to risk and choose the most suitable investment products and funds for you given all of your circumstances. There are investment products with a variety of different levels of risk, from low, low to medium, medium, medium to high and high risk. The returns on each will differ and your Financial Adviser can advise you on what’s best for you, your family and your future. If you would like an initial free, no nonsense, no obligation appointment with myself, Frank Cochran, Derek Baillie or Mark Mitchell then please give us a call or drop us an email. Call: 01902 422333 or Email: info@fscinvestments.co.uk We will always try to place your money in the most suitable place, at different times to suit your personal requirements.

PGA Golf Tips from Jeremy Nicholls at South Staffs Golf Club Academy..... Leg Action in the Golf Swing During the past few weeks i have had quite a few beginners getting into golf and taking lessons. A common fault I have noticed is they will pick the club up and swing their arms and club without taking into account what the actual legs are doing. The legs play an active role in the golf swing, they act as a support mechanism for the golf swing and without using them properly it can lead to a lack of power in the golf swing and the inconsistency in the direction of the ball flight. •At address ensure feet are shoulder width apart, knees slightly flexed, with knees pointing out towards the toes. •During the backswing retain the right knee flex as this will help the arms and club stay on the correct swing plane (path of the club). •The left foot stays planted as you start the downswing, this helps you start the downswing correctly and gives you extra power. •During the downswing do not let your legs drive towards the target, let them stay under your hips as you rotate into the impact and through to the finish.

CHRIST CHURCH FLOWER FESTIVAL AND CONCERT Make a note in your diaries! Christ Church at Tettenhall Wood is putting on another of it’s stunning Flower Festivals from the 23 to 25 September 2016. If you have been to one of these before, you will know they are not to be missed. If you haven’t then the advice is, go along and see what local flower arranging talent is on our doorstep. This one will be even more special because it coincides with the 150 th Anniversary of the Church. The theme this year is “Creation” and the creativity on view in such a beautiful setting will make you drool with admiration. If beautifully crafted floral delights are not your thing then there is also an exhibition of local history. Tracing back to when the Church was first conceived, you can learn of how it developed, who paid for it and the place it took in the local community. Indeed you can read some fascinating details about Tettenhall Wood in yesteryear and understand how the community developed into what it is today. If it is not flowers or history which excites, then it is perhaps music and local music at that. The Church is hosting a concert on Saturday 24 September 2016 at 7.30pm given by students of our local St Peter’s Collegiate School. Previous concerts given by the School have been highly acclaimed and this will be no exception. The School’s Senior Choir, the Big Band and the Concert Band will all be performing in a setting made particularly special because of the floral displays which will all still be in place. If you think there is not much going on in Tettenhall Wood then try this. Months of planning have gone into these events, they have always been notable for their quality and the interest they invoke and this year will be even more so because of the 150 th Anniversary celebrations. Give it a try; you’ll be pleased you made the effort! www.connectpages.co.uk ♦ connectpagesonline@gmail.com ♦ 07734 461934
