Kingsfleet

So many charities are doing incredible work, but almost all are facing real challenges in securing the funds they need—not just to keep going, but to grow. One example is The Shelley Centre for Therapeutic Riding, near Hadleigh, which provides life-changing support for children and adults with disabilities through horse riding. Run entirely by volunteers, the centre costs over £80,000 a year to operate—and those costs are constantly rising. In the latest @Suffolk Money podcast, supported by us at Kingsfleet, Kevin Burch meets the team to hear their story...

It was great to have a visit from Lynn Maskell from St Elizabeth Hospice to say thank you for supporting them. St Elizabeth Hospice is such a fantastic charity, caring for people with life-limiting illnesses and conditions as well as supporting their family and friends. We really value everything the hospice does for the community and will continue to support them in their work. Here is a photo of Lynn and the Kingsfleet team. #charity #support #stelizabethhospice #ipswich #suffolk

We’re proud to share that we received a Highly Commended award in the Best Adviser Firm for ESG category at the Professional Adviser Awards in London last night. It was a category filled with outstanding companies committed to investing for purpose, so it was an honour to be recognised. The judges highlighted our B Corp status (timely given that it's B Corp month), and Suffolk focus, which means a lot to us. #BCorp #highlycommended #awardsnight

Save Freya! Freya Murphy, our all-round lovely administrator has been accused of constantly singing in the office (she has, we dobbed her in). Suffolk Constabulary will be arresting her on Friday 28th March and she won't be released until she's raised £1000 for Home-Start in Suffolk. Home-Start in Suffolk is the county's largest family support charity. They offer struggling families throughout Suffolk practical help and emotional support. These families are facing a wide range of challenges including loneliness and isolation, mental health issues, disability, physical health problems, poverty and domestic violence. Can you help get Freya out of jail quickly whilst raising funds for a fantastic local charity? Colin Low and the team at Kingsfleet desperately need her back in the office! https://lnkd.in/e2fh3M_S #charity #freefreya #homestartsuffolk #JailandBail

Today, on International Women’s Day, we want to recognise and celebrate the incredible women who make up nearly 70% of our team. Without their talent, commitment, and dedication, Kingsfleet wouldn’t be the award-winning firm it is today. Their expertise, hard work, and support shape not just our business but also the lives of the clients we serve. Thank you to each and every one of you for the passion and professionalism you bring every day. Your contributions don’t just drive our success—they define it. #IWD2025 #InternationalWomensDay #Kingsfleet

Proud supporters of Felixstowe Book Festival. As founder Colin Low says "Felixstowe is at the heart of our story – it's where I grew up, and even our company's name comes from my former primary school in the town. With education and lifelong learning central to our values, supporting the Felixstowe Book Festival is a natural fit. The festival not only celebrates the power of books and learning but also showcases the vibrant community of Felixstowe, a place that remains integral to our identity.

Today, Colin Low had the privilege of speaking at the Suffolk Director Magazine event, sharing his deeply personal experience of losing Gary Gladwell. The emotional toll on the team was overwhelming, including Gary's wife Louise Gladwell who worked in the firm, but the impact on business which can often be overlooked, was significant. Colin’s story highlighted the importance of thinking about business continuity and facing some thoughts we don't like to face, but also putting values into action, especially when facing tough times. For him, it was about focusing on his team and ensuring they had the support and guidance to navigate through it. It’s a powerful reminder that leadership is not just about results, but about people. By sharing his journey, Colin was able to share his lessons on what he would do differently but also what the firm did well so others can learn from it. #Leadership #CoreValues #Teamwork #Resilience #BusinessLeadership
