Hi I’m Debbie and I enjoy looking after my clients as a financial advisor with DJW Financial Services.

In my spare time, I am a pink-haired sax player who runs ‘In The Pink’ Big band which performs big band swing music across Dorset and the surrounding areas. I'm also a volunteer trustee and general manager of Cementing Futures charity whom we are raising funds for.

I have been to Bangladesh four times now (self-funded) and as a former teacher I am passionate about helping the young children who live in poverty and are unable to access education. I have seen at first hand, the difference our money can make to the lives of these children and also how eager they are to learn when I have been there teaching them.

As one of the older members of the group climbing, my personal aim is to prove to these youngsters that 50 is indeed, the new 40!!!
