Award-winning Accountant

I was one of the winners of the 2014 Small Business Saturday 100, resulting in an invite to Downing Street.

Small Business Saturday is the UK's most successful small business campaign. Only one hundred of the UK’s top small businesses are selected each year. They act as trail-blazers in the official count-down towards the annual event.

In 2018, I returned to Number 11 for a Small Business Saturday event to celebrate small businesses in the UK.

I have also won several awards in the Surrey Digital Awards from 2015 - 2018. Competitors in the awards included much larger businesses throughout Surrey.
