Wealth at Work has acquired the Affinity group of companies, it has announced.

It is the financial education provider’s third strategic acquisition following the purchase of Life Academy in 2015.

Affinity, known officially as The Farleigh Group Ltd, was founded in 2004. It is a national provider of financial education and advice services based in Bristol.

The group works with over 200 employers and mainly operates in the public sector for local authorities, the fire and police services and the NHS.

Commenting on the acquisition, Wealth at Work director Jonathan Watts-Lay said he is “very excited” about the acquisition.

“We mainly provide our services to the private sector so this presents further opportunities for us to expand into the public sector, providing financial education seminars, guidance and advice, particularly for those employees who are at-retirement where making the correct decisions are crucial. Our increased capacity means we can continue to respond to the fast growing demand for our services.”
