Understanding the farming community
There’s no-one better at understanding the unique problems facing the agricultural business than you, as farmers yourselves. That’s why we have so many experienced staff at Armstrong Watson with farming backgrounds. The benefit of this speaks volumes about the quality of our specialist advice, as these long-standing clients will testify.
Excellent support
Armstrong Watson has looked after our family farm for decades. In fact, they’ve been our accountants for my entire working life. I like them because they give me the specialist advice I need, and always do so in a way I understand.
For example, since diversifying my business from farming, I’ve had excellent support from their VAT specialists about tax relief. I hate to admit it, I once considered changing accountancy firms. But, as soon as I looked at the competition, I realised that Armstrong Watson was the right firm, for the right reasons.

Successful application
After we decided to diversify part of our farming business into a visitor attraction, Armstrong Watson spent a great deal of time helping us with the financial planning - budgets, costs, staffing numbers, wages etc.
This then formed part of our business plan, which we used to apply for a Rural Enterprise Grant. Thankfully, we were successful and Hesketh Farm Park became a reality.

Knowledgeable asset
Our previous accountants simply didn’t understand the specialist needs of agriculture. We moved to Armstrong Watson in 2002 and we have been impressed by their advice ever since. Their agricultural background and knowledge is a great asset. What’s more, not only are our fees lower, we’re paying less tax too. Armstrong Watson is a valuable part of our business and we look forward to their help with the many challenges that the farming industry will undoubtedly face in the coming years.

Detailed understanding
Armstrong Watson is a valuable part of our business. Not only do they have an excellent knowledge of agricultural accounts and tax matters, almost all the people I come into contact with from Armstrong Watson have farming backgrounds. That means they have a detailed understanding of day-to-day farming and the challenges we face. They use this knowledge to help me develop my business and to provide me with proactive, workable solutions and advice.
Geoff Roddam - Farmer
Honest advice
Because Armstrong Watson is onside, support is always at hand if we have a decision to make or an idea for the farm that we want to explore. They give us the genuine, honest advice we appreciate. They understand agriculture and they know how we operate.
