Over the last few months, our team have worked hard to plan and deliver our new look as we rebranded from Gregor Howitt Wealth Management to Latitude Wealth Management. As the dust settles, we wanted to take a moment to reflect and thank everyone who has helped us on our journey into this exciting new chapter as Latitude Wealth Management.

Firstly, our team of advisers and practice support specialists for their support with all aspects of the new look – from event planning, liaising with our vendors, placings orders, tracking and chasing deliveries, and everything in between. The team have embraced new challenges and come together in a truly collaborative project to ensure that the rebrand was seamless on launch day.

We would also like to thank the following local companies in Aberdeen and Orkney who’s expertise was invaluable:
- Minto – for designing our striking new logo and brand, stationary and event flyers. We love the design and colours of the new brand that were chosen to represent us as Latitude Wealth Management moving forward.
- Artmachine Graphics Ltd – for designing and fitting our striking new window display and signage on the Orkney office, in addition to our stunning new notebooks and pens for client events
- Recognition Express (name badges) – for designing lovely new name badges for the team
- We would also like to thank the photographers who captured the bright smiles of our friendly team in both offices for our new website:
o Aberdeen Headshots by Camryn Forman Media
o Orkney Headshots by Orkney Photographic
- Our very own Bethan Davies, whose artistic talent was a guiding light for the creative elements of the project. Bethan Davies Art & Design

On Thursday 28 August, the team from our Aberdeen Office were delighted to host an event to celebrate the launch of our new name. With special thanks to the vendors who helped ensure our celebration was a huge success:
- Venue and Wine Tasting - SugarBird Wines
- Music - Stephen McPhee https://smcpheemusic.co.uk/home
- Cupcakes - Cupcakes by Jen

The team in our Orkney office also enjoyed hosting their own celebration of our new name on Thursday 11 September. We would also like to thank the following vendors who contributed to another hit in the Latitude Wealth Management 2025 calendar!
- Venue - Old Library Coworking
- Catering - Kerry’s Dining Experience
