We hope you like our new visual identity.

The new design recognises the dramatically changing world of business, of touch-screen responsiveness and transactions, and better reflects our ethos of embracing technology in the continual search for efficiencies for our clients.

We are chartered accountants (accredited by the ICAEW), but the inclusion of that in our old logo masked not only our full range of services, but also the big-picture, partner-driven, relationship approach to providing advice that is tailored for each client.

The logo is new but our philosophy remains unchanged. Our single focus is to constantly evolve our service in order to add genuine value to the businesses and individuals we advise.
