Our Values
Because for us, protection is personal
As parents to two grown sons and with a granddaughter, the importance of financial protection isn’t just something we advise on — it’s something we genuinely believe in. We know firsthand how priorities evolve through life, and how important it is to ensure the people who depend on you are always supported.
That’s why our approach is simple:
Life Insurance
A lump sum paid out if you die during the policy term — helping clear the mortgage and support your family financially.

Critical Illness Cover
Pays a tax-free lump sum if you’re diagnosed with a serious illness (such as cancer, heart attack, stroke, and other covered conditions).
Read More
Income Protection
Helps replace part of your income if you can’t work due to illness or injury — so bills still get paid while you recover.
Read More
Fracture Cover
A fixed cash payout for certain fractures and injuries, providing extra support when you need it.
Read More
Global Treatment Options
Access to treatment options beyond the UK (where included by the provider), giving more choice and reassurance.
Read More
Trusts
We can help arrange trusts where appropriate, to help ensure the money goes to the right people quickly and efficiently.
Read More
Wills & Pensions (Outsourced)
We can introduce you to trusted third parties for wills and pensions support, with a smooth handover.

Meet Helen
Hello, I’m Helen — one half of Merrington Financial.
I’m a mother and soon to be a very proud grandma, and family is at the heart of everything I do. As your family grows, your perspective shifts — you think more about security, stability and making sure the people you love are always protected.
For many years, I’ve helped families put the right cover in place through calm, honest conversations. No pressure. No jargon. Just reassurance and clarity.
I understand these topics aren’t always easy to talk about. But I also know the peace of mind that comes from knowing your home, your income and your loved ones are secure.
For me, it’s never just about policies.
It’s about helping families feel safe — whatever life brings.
Meet Steven
Hello, I’m Steven — the other half of Merrington Financial.
Losing my father at a young age had a lasting impact on me. It shaped how I see responsibility, family and the importance of financial security.
When you experience loss early in life, you understand just how important stability is for the people left behind. It’s not just about income — it’s about removing worry at a time when emotions are already overwhelming.
That experience is one of the reasons I’m so passionate about helping families put proper protection in place.
My approach is calm, straightforward and honest. I believe in explaining things clearly, without unnecessary complexity or pressure, so you can make decisions with confidence.
Together, we’ve supported many families in protecting their homes, their income and their futures.
At Merrington Financial, protection isn’t just financial.
It’s personal.
FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
It varies by provider and circumstances, but setting it up correctly (and using trusts where suitable) can help claims run smoothly.
Often yes — it may affect pricing or exclusions, but we’ll guide you through what’s realistic and help you find the best option.
Usually not. Most applications are done with health questions, and occasionally insurers may request more information from your GP.
It depends on age, smoking status, health, and the amount/term of cover. We’ll give you options at different price points.
Testimonials
Without it, we would have struggled financially. Instead, we were given breathing space when we needed it most.
Dino Jordan
You never think you’ll need to claim — but when we did, we realised just how vital our cover was.
Lyore Keoly
We kept putting life insurance off because it felt overwhelming. Steve made the whole process simple and explained everything without any pressure. Now it’s sorted, we feel such a sense of relief knowing our children are protected.
Mark northallerton
We’d been putting life insurance off for years because we thought it would be expensive. Helen talked us through everything with zero pressure and sorted it quickly — now we feel massively relieved knowing the kids are protected.
