The Castlefield story began in 2002, when a small team of colleagues decided to found a business that could provide a truly personal service.

From day one, we wanted to be a business with clients at its centre and one that could also give all colleagues the chance to share in its future.

Over the last twenty years, we’ve grown and joined forces with two very well-established ethical advice businesses.

Today, we're an award-winning, employee-owned ethical investment and advice group that's part-owned by a grant-making charitable foundation.

We can quite confidently say we’re "the most firmly established ethically focused advice business in the UK’"

Castlefield is an award-winning, employee-owned ethical investment and advice group that is part-owned by a grant-making charitable foundation.
