I’m recently divorced or bereaved and need some support

A helping hand when you need it most

A major life event like bereavement or divorce can turn your world upside down. Suddenly, you may be facing complex financial decisions on your own, often for the first time, while still navigating the emotional toll of loss or separation.

At Depledge, we understand how difficult this part of your life can be. Our friendly team members will make things easier by helping you take control of your finances. With us in your corner, this transitional period will become a springboard to a happier, more stable time.

Making the most of what you have

Receiving a large sum through a divorce settlement or life insurance payout can feel both liberating and terrifying. Without proper guidance, this money could be eroded by poor investment choices, high fees, or unnecessary taxes.

Allow us to show you how to invest your money wisely, balancing the need for growth with a risk level you’re comfortable with.

A budget that works for you

When your financial situation changes overnight, it can be hard to know how much you can afford to spend. With our guidance, you’ll create a clear budget that shows exactly what you can expect and how to make your money last.

This practical plan will give you the confidence to make everyday spending decisions without constantly worrying about your future.

Keeping you and your loved ones safe

Your insurance needs change dramatically after divorce or bereavement. Existing policies may need updating, and you might need new products that will provide cover if something happens to you.

We’ll review all your existing arrangements and recommend appropriate solutions such as life insurance, income protection, or critical illness cover.

Support that goes beyond numbers

We know this is about more than just money. It’s about rebuilding, resetting, and finding the confidence to make decisions that feel right. That’s why we take the time to listen, understand, and support you at every step.

You’ll never be rushed, judged, or bombarded with jargon. Instead, expect calm, clear advice that helps you move forward at your own pace.

Your capital is at risk. The value of your investment (and any income from them) can go down as well as up and you may not get back the full amount you invested. Investments should be considered over the longer term and should fit in with your overall attitude to risk and financial circumstances.

Life Assurance plans typically have no cash in value at any time and cover will cease at the end of term. If premiums stop, then cover will lapse.
