About Us

Portia Grant is the founder and managing director of Portia’s Partnership Savings Club, a UK-based first commercial Partner (Pardna) firm, dedicated to assisting low-income individuals and families in developing smart pardoner savings plans.

With a passion for assisting low income and struggling families, Portia, originally from Jamaica, has remained dedicated to serving those less fortunate for much of her life. In 2005, she started PPSP after meeting and bringing together five families in need of financial management advice. Since then, PPSP has grown to more than 500 members who are all experiencing first-hand the expertise and practical advice Portia has integrated into her saving plans or monthly investment plans, or what she has since dubbed the “Pardna Method.”

Portia’s aim is to provide a convenient and reliable Partner Scheme to individuals. Additionally, Portia believes that this system of saving money promotes responsibility as people learn to reserve a certain amount of their weekly/monthly income for savings.

Before launching her own business, Portia held various positions as an IT support engineer and an IT technician for Capgemini PLC and Just IT Services, respectively.

She holds a bachelor’s degree in business and information technology from The Metropolitan University. She has also earned numerous certifications and coursework experience in professional network programming, business information technology, project management, business administration, and bookkeeping. She has more than ten years’ experience in the finance industry.

When she is not pursuing her passion of helping people learn to save money, Portia can often be found at the cinema with friends or socializing with friends around South London. She also enjoys cooking up Caribbean cuisine, a skill gained from growing up in the family business.
