Surrey-based adviser made first Seven Families ambassador

A Surrey-based financial adviser who has defied three different types of cancer and completed a trek to the South Pole has been appointed as the first ambassador of the Seven Families project.

Patrick McIntosh, of KMG Chartered Financial Planners, will provide advice and support to Seven Families, promoting its initiatives and speak at its events.

He said: “Seven Families is an inspiring campaign and underlines two very important issues.

“Firstly, that most people are desperately vulnerable financially if they become seriously ill, and secondly, that there is a way back to health and work after a serious illness.

“Some of the people in this project are going through incredible life changes and it is so important to highlight their struggle.

“I’m honoured to be the first ambassador of the campaign.”

The Seven Families project was set up to highlight the importance of protecting one’s income.

It is administered by Disability Rights UK and the Income Protection Task Force and supported by insurance providers such as Aviva, British Friendly, Royal London and Zurich.
