Enhancing People’s Lives
Delivering peace of mind, enabling financial freedom and helping clients achieve their goals. Our three core areas of focus are our clients, our colleagues and being socially responsible.
We are always looking for ways we can enhance people’s lives as a financial services provider, an employer and as a community based business.
For our clients
We are passionate about providing brilliant service | We care about and foster life-long relationships with our clients and their loved ones |
We work together to deliver personal solutions that enhance people’s lives
We are proud of what we are achieving and here are a few of our stories we’d like to share with you.
For our colleagues
We are ambitious and aim to be the best version of ourselves and the best at what we do | We live and breathe our values and nurture an energetic culture where we are motivated to do great things
Social Responsibility
We support our local communities by providing financial education and career opportunities to young people | We strive to make a positive impact on the environment through the way we work and the solutions we provide

Opportunities for Young People
We have an Ellis Bates team working on a number of initiatives to deliver on our commitment to being an ‘Education Champion’ where we work with individual schools and teachers to provide financial education to students. We will be providing structured work experience for young people as we recognise that those entering the job market may disproportionately suffer from severe economic dislocations, (something we have seen in 2020). A key part will be to help young people to entering the job market, whether it be with CVs, Linkedin profiles, Social Media awareness, interview skills and/or career progression.

Financial Clinics
As soon as we can safely get people together, we will offer free financial clinics offering support and guidance on key financial matters to help people back on track and to relieve some of the stresses of planning for life events.

Charity Partners
We have a dedicated Charity team at Ellis Bates. Each year we choose our selected charities and we hold events amongst our colleagues to raise money. Last year we raised £3,300 and activities included abseiling down our 4 story building in Harrogate, as well as themed lunches, dress down days, raffles and cake sales.
