Helping women find a financial adviser.
Helena.finance is a free UK service that connects women going through divorce, bereavement or self-employment with FCA-regulated financial advisers. Helena.finance itself is not FCA-authorised and does not give advice.
What we do, and what we don’t
The site is free to use. We list FCA-regulated advisers who specialise in advice for women, and you can contact them through the site. The advice itself comes from the adviser you choose, not from us.
Helena, our AI chat, gives general information about money after a divorce, a bereavement or a move into self-employment. She can explain how things like pension sharing or probate work. She can’t tell you what to do with your own money, and nothing she says is financial advice.
