Bridgewater Equity Release is going to Birmingham and Leeds in May to host its regular Broker Forum events.

The first May forum will be held in Birmingham on Wednesday 25 May at the Park Inn by Radisson Hotel, Birmingham Road, West Midlands, B70 6RS. The second forum will be held in Leeds on Thursday 26 May at the Village Hotel (South Leeds), Capitol Boulevard West, Tingley, Leeds LS27 0TS.

Both broker forums begin with networking from 10am for a 10.30am start. The meetings conclude at 12.30pm followed by lunch and finish at 1pm – free parking is available to all attendees.

Bridgewater’s Broker Forums are designed to provide equity release advisers, and those looking at entering the sector, with an opportunity to discuss a wide range of related issues in an informal setting. Experienced Bridgewater Equity Release staff chair the meetings and are on hand to offer valuable information and support about a variety of equity release-related topics, particularly on the opportunities within the home reversion market. All subjects under discussion are determined by the assembled Group.

Peter Welch, head of sales and distribution at Bridgewater Equity Release, said: “With the Bank Holiday bonanza over many advisers can anticipate a growing interest in their services as we move through Spring into Summer. This is also the case for potential equity release clients and it is therefore important that advisers are clued up on recent market developments and changes
