Client Services
Please note our physical premises are now closed. Although we have adapted our processes, we continue to manage our post daily, and you should experience minimal to no disruption to our handling and response times. All other services are continuing as normal. Most staff now work from home, and we will ensure that we continue to support you in the usual way via calls, emails and video conferencing.
Increased Fraud Risk
Fraudsters are taking advantage of the uncertainty caused by the Coronavirus to target potential victims. Please take all necessary steps to ensure you are not one of them. Full Government guidance can be found here. Wherever possible you should send documents and transfer money electronically, rather than sending forms and cheques in the post. It is also important to be vigilant when it comes to making transactions online.
