Clive Owen LLP - Darlington

Andrew Rhodes

Of all the accountancy firms I've ever interacted with, and there have been a lot, Clive Owen LLP stands out as the premier accouning firm for a variety of reasons. Firstly, it's management and leadership has always been driven by strong values in terms of being generous, authentic and honourable with whoever they deal with, whether their clients, their own people and even other accounting firms like ourselves. These strong values were instituted by their founder Clive Owen and continued unabated by Tony Luckett and now by their present managing partner, Gary Ellis.

Secondly, their service and standards are impeccable and I can can think of no better praise than I try and emulate as many of their procedures and working practices as I can in my own practice. You can be assured that you are in the very best of hands when you are a client or employee of Clive Owen LLP.

I’m the Founder & Director of Humanly, an award-winning design studio specialising in human-centred design for social impact. We engaged Clive Owen LLP to help us access an Innovate UK grant during the Covid-19 pandemic. It was a difficult time for many businesses, and we were concerned about the paperwork which initially looked quite daunting.
We dealt with Carl Wright who was great from the start. He took the time to talk us through the project, so we had a good understanding of what was required from the outset, which was very reassuring. In fact, Carl made the whole process simple and his experience and expertise were invaluable. After the first call he provided me with a useful template to capture all our expenditure in one place and this turned out to be an indispensable resource for us. If you are looking for grants support, I highly recommend Clive Owen LLP. They were efficient, supportive and went above and beyond to help us with the project. They are also nice people to deal with.
