The service from Penelope and the team at FSP was excellent and I would certainly use them again.

Nick Randall, Investor and non-executive director

Penelope Garden and the team were superb, they provided us with a competitive price and a service second to none. We will probably only do this once in our lifetime and the team at FSP talked us through the process and held our hands throughout. I genuinely cannot see how the service could have been improved, the communication was thorough and there was a joined up approach from the team of individuals co-ordinated by Penelope.

Philip Shaul

We could not have overcome potential hurdles and reached a successful conclusion of the sale without the sound advice, hard work and positive approach of Penelope.

Will Eaton, Metaskil

Without Penelope's tremendous input, tenacity and overall contribution we would never have completed our deal. Penelope truly is brilliant and I hope it's not too long before we do another deal with her.

Andy Cotton, Stewarts Coaches

It was a pleasure working with Penelope, Jeremy and the rest of the FSP team on the Cutting Edge Solutions transaction. FSP provided high quality advice that was delivered in a timely manner throughout the transaction, their proactive approach enabled us to meet a demanding timetable. We look forward to working with the FSP team again in the future.
