IFP is inundated with "Get Well Soon" messages for chief executive Nick Cann
The IFP says it has been flooded this week with a huge number of goodwill and "Get Well Soon" messages for its popular chief executive Nick Cann, who is recovering from illness.
The IFP’s communications director Sue Whitbread, said: “The IFP has been absolutely inundated with messages for Nick. The messages have come from across the Financial Planning spectrum but with a notably big response from members, many of whom have expressed their appreciation of what Nick does for the profession.”
Messages and cards can be sent to Nick via the IFP's head office in Bristol. Many members and well-wishers have taken to Twitter and other social media to wish him a speeedy recover. Mr Cann is recovering after suffering an illness last week.
Earlier this week, a statement from the IFP said: "We just wanted to let you know that Nick Cann, the chief executive of the Institute of Financial Planning, has been taken ill and is to spend some time away from his post while he recovers."
The senior management team of Steve Gazzard (Operations Director), Sue Leech (Education Director), Sue Whitbread (Communications Director), Katherine Morgans (Events Director) and Lucy Courtenay (Qualifications Director FPSB UK) will run the professional body in the interim, working closely with staff, supporters and the IFP Board.
Rebecca Taylor FIFP CFPCM, IFP President, said: "Nick has worked tirelessly to develop Financial Planning and professional standards in the UK and I'm sure the high quality team he has built around him will continue his good work while he recovers. We will be in constant contact with Nick whilst he recovers and will forward any 'get well' messages directly onto him."
Kevin O'Donnell, editor of Financial Planner Online and Financial Planner magazine, said: "We wish Nick a speedy recovery and send our best wishes to him, his family and his IFP colleagues. We look forward to seeing Nick back leading the IFP and the Financial Planning community before too long."
