Cassons named Accountancy Firm of the Year

3 December 2009

A Lancashire based firm of accountants is celebrating after being named Accountancy Firm of the Year at a prestigious awards ceremony.

Cassons chartered accountants and business advisers scooped the top accolade at the event held by the North West Society of Chartered Accountants.

The award was presented at a ceremony at the Stanley House Hotel in Salmesbury attended by fellow accountants and other professionals from around the North West.

The award for Accountancy Firm of the Year focused on the nominees’ unique way of doing business, their ability to respond to challenging times and, most importantly, their customer service record with particular emphasis on how they have been actively helping their clients through the recent recession.

Napthens Solicitors sponsored the category and Keith Melling, partner at the firm, presented the award on the night.

He said: “The winning firm, Cassons, has been innovative in diversifying its offerings during these difficult economic times; they have continued to invest in their organisation and their people and above all showed very clear evidence of how they have helped their clients through the recession.”

Les Nutter, managing partner at Cassons, said: “We’re absolutely thrilled to have won this highly respected award. It is testament to the hard work and care every single person in our firm strives to give our clients, every day. We are particularly delighted that the judges noted our commitment to growing our business and our people which is something we care passionately about.”

This is the second award that Cassons have won in recent months; in October Les Nutter was named the 2020 Group’s Managing Partner of the Year.
