Financial adviser in Chorley
Chorley wears its market-town roots well (the Flat Iron still fills with stalls, Astley Park sits right beside the centre, and the West Pennine Moors rise beyond Rivington) yet these days it's just as much a commuter town, with the M61 and Buckshaw Parkway carrying people to Manchester and Preston every morning. I'm Max Gallagher, a financial adviser (DipPFS, CeMAP) with Financial Options Group, and I work with clients across Chorley and its surrounding villages, from Euxton and Buckshaw Village out to Adlington, Coppull and Croston. It's a town where mill-era terraces sit alongside brand-new estates, and the money questions people bring me are just as varied.
Because so many Chorley people are working around a commute, I fit around you, I'm happy to come to you in person, or we can talk by Teams or phone once you're back from Manchester or Preston. Your first meeting is always free and without obligation: a plain conversation about your pensions, investments, savings or mortgage and what you actually want from them. After that I'll do the research and come back with clear recommendations in plain English, whether you go ahead is entirely your call.

Who I help in Chorley
- Buying on Buckshaw Village? I advise on mortgages and remortgages for the newer homes on the former Royal Ordnance site, including first-time buyers taking their first step there.
- Commuting from Chorley or Buckshaw Parkway into Manchester or Preston often leaves a trail of workplace pensions from different employers, I help people track them down and make sense of them.
- Chorley has a strong NHS and public-sector workforce, including staff at Chorley and South Ribble Hospital, and defined-benefit pensions like these deserve careful, properly qualified advice.
- From terraces near the town centre to village homes in Euxton, Eccleston and Adlington, I offer genuinely local, face-to-face advice, backed by 160+ five-star Google reviews, not a call centre.
Pensions and retirement planning in Chorley
If your working life has been split between Chorley employers and years of commuting down the M61 or the Manchester line, you've probably collected several pensions along the way, I'll help you understand what you've got and how it all fits your plans for retirement.
Mortgage advice in Chorley
Chorley's housing runs from stone terraces off Market Street to new-builds on Buckshaw Village and family homes out in Whittle-le-Woods and Croston, and I advise on mortgages and remortgages right across that mix.
