Sports, Leisure and Tourism

It is hard to imagine a Bishop Fleming Rabjohns without links to the Sports, Leisure and Tourism sector.

With a Welsh international hockey player, an ex-professional rugby player for Worcester Warriors and ex Scotland Schoolboy international on the team, a Chairman who played winger for Worcester before the club hit the heights (and still thinks there may be a season left in him) and various amateur sportsmen and women playing loads of different sports and leisure activities, it's in our blood.

Our clients include the Worcester Warriors and Worcestershire County Cricket Clubs. Our longest standing client has been in the business of installing all hard and artificial sports ground surfaces for over 50 years - and still going strong.

Other clients include canal boat operators; landed estates and a well known country house, which also operates a Land Rover off-road centre.

Looking to the Arts; in 2009 Bishop Fleming Rabjohns secured the auditing contract with one of the UK's most prestigious theatres. Nestling at the foot of the dramatic Malvern Hills, Malvern Theatres is a major centre for the arts in the West Midlands.

We have considerable expertise in advising on taxation issues surrounding sports ground and commercial site development, capital and income taxes and private wealth planning. For the Warriors, we are "taxation architects" of one of the most ambitious and impressive premiership rugby ground developments in the country.

As well as accountancy, audit and taxation services, Bishop Fleming Rabjohns can provide a number of other services for the Sports, Leisure and Tourism sector. These include IT, bookkeeping and payroll services to ensure the smooth day-to-day running of the business as well as corporate finance services and Business Navigator for more strategic long term business planning. As members of Kreston International, Bishop Fleming Rabjohns has access to quality associated firms covering the whole of the UK and throughout all of the major trading nations globally should overseas assistance or expertise be required.
