About Us

Eastgate Financial happened because two friends were having a conversation about Financial Advising and how it should be available to everyone.

Mel is our Co-founder and Advising Director with a Level 4 Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning.

If she’s not working, Mel can be found at the yard with her horse Ruby and Mini dachshund Pippa - Little & Large!

Mel regularly travels between Suffolk & Wales and has clients across the country so no place is too far.
