Finding an independent financial adviser.
You can get help finding an independent financial adviser using MoneyHelper’s Retirement Advisory Directory, at https://www.moneyhelper.org.uk/en/pensions-and-retirement/taking-your-pension/find-a-retirement-adviser. An adviser will usually charge for their time, although many will not charge for the first meeting. Make sure you understand the costs before agreeing to anything.
