As the famous Beatles song says… ‘it was twenty years ago today’ that I took the leap from a stable well-paid job into the uncertain world of being a business owner!

I set the stall early by trying to fix the obvious issues that I saw with accountancy practices… offering direct debits, fixed fees and 30-day turnaround of accounts – nothing innovative there, just plain sense as far as I was concerned (although many said it couldn’t be done!). That is where we have hung our hat for the last 20 years – challenging the preconceived ways of running an accountancy practice, with success and the odd skinned knees!

We have continued our drive to create a truly scalable business with innovation at its core, that is a stimulating workplace for our 63 strong team and a base from which to offer an ever-expanding range of services to our SME clients. We have had the privilege to work with some truly inspirational mentors, team members and business owners. We’ve learned a lot along the way and long may it continue.

It just remains for me to say a big thank you to all staff and clients past and present – we couldn’t have done it without you! Looking forward to the next 20 years!
