What we stand for

Family in the community

We believe in doing the right thing, not just for families, but for our local Brighton community too. That's why, since 1992, our Community Programme has been committed to providing support for a number of local organisations.

In 2009 we put over 1,000 hours into the community, and were voted winner of the Business in the Community category at the Sussex Business Awards.

Our work includes:

  • Working with local nurseries and schools.
  • Supporting Age Concern, including an annual Christmas open day at our offices.
  • Supporting local charities and topping-up any staff fundraising.
  • 'Working Together' team challenges and staff development.
  • An extensive recycling scheme.

Mutual benefits

Family Investments are a mutual, which means we are not owned by external shareholders (like a PLC) but work for, and only answer to, customers like you.

Our values

Here at Family, we strive to stay true to our five core values, both in our dealings with you, and with each other.

  • Customer Focus: Our staff will take ownership of your query, and ensure they see any question or issue through to your satisfaction.
  • Respect: All of our customers are equally important to us, and we will make sure that we treat you with the same respect as we would expect to be treated ourselves.
  • Professionalism: At at 31st December 2011, we handled over £3.4 billion in family funds. So we have lots of experience in looking after your money.
  • Honesty: Our communications with you will be in plain English, and we will always be open and clear.
  • Commercial Focus: We will provide the very best service for our customers throughout the term of their investment and beyond.
