The Ardill Group core purpose is To walk with our clients through their financial lives.  For Sarah Ardill, joining the firm in 2020 was the latest step on a path she’s been walking since childhood.

She grew up in a pastor’s home.  It was always busy with people:  people coming and going, people staying awhile for support. So she grew up learning how to serve and support others.

“We were always having families into our home, walking with them through the ups and downs of life.  So it was instilled in me, from my earliest years, that there was more to life than just looking after yourself.”

This care for others led Sarah to attain her social work diploma at Seneca College.  Afterwards she worked at a hospice and a pregnancy centre, running programs and providing counselling.  As she puts it, after a few years in the workforce, she made a change to “focus on the greatest task of all – raising our three incredible children.”  She is a very creative cook and loves to bake for her kids, whom she sometimes takes to nursing homes to visit seniors.  To join them on their walk.

When the children neared their teen years, Sarah was looking for a new challenge – so she joined Ardill Group to provide back office support. “I love the work and especially our core purpose,” she says.  It’s a natural progression for the person I’ve always been.”
