Meet our Bristol team!
Tom Hale
Branch Manager
How long have you worked for Chelsea?
Hi I'm Tom and I have been part of Chelsea for over 8 years and that is the same length of time I have worked in the financial services sector.
What do you love about Bristol?
Having recently moved to Bristol, it's new, exciting and that in itself is why I love it.
The city has seen huge change and with the re-generation of the centre it will be taking giant leaps in making Bristol the capital of the South West and it is hugely exciting that Chelsea is stepping up to the mark and taking our brand with it. With a new team, a new improved branch and a new city, I'm excited about the future prospects for Bristol and Chelsea.

What do you love about Bristol?
I have lived in Bristol all my life and love the diversity - from the people to the things to do. You have all the action of the bars and restaurants in the city centre and waterfront but about a mile away the tranquillity of The Downs and Ashton Court. I also love the historical side of Bristol, SS Great Britain, Clifton Suspension Bridge and most of all, Concorde.
