Strategic Planning Testimonials

I have been a client of Rabjohns since the day I started my business in 1962. I have always greatly valued their advice and support.

They have been a key player in the professional team that has helped me take Worcester Rugby Club from a traditional amateur club to a thriving Premiership club. In particular, it has been with Rabjohns tax advice that we have developed the Sixways Stadium into the envy of the other professional clubs. As well as acting as our auditors and tax advisers, they play an integral role in many other facets of the club, providing IT Project Management and financial forecasting for the East Stand project, PAYE and VAT advice and even chairing our management meetings when needed. Added to all of that they are great supporters and sponsors and work really hard to bring visitors and sponsors to the club.

Rabjohns also act as auditors to The Duckworth Worcestershire Trust, the charitable foundation that I set up. As well as their technical work they work hard to support our aims even dedicating one of their team days to working on our environmental projects.

Cecil Duckworth OBE, Chairman, Worcester Rugby Football Club (Trading) Limited, and former Chief Executive of Worcester Group Plc.

"Rabjohns take time to understand the internal workings of our business, which helps them to give constructive and professional advice. We find their input to be of a very high and professional standard, but at a realistic cost. Even when I am abroad on business, the service I get from 10,000 kms is superlative.

Their car parking assistance is the best in the world - almost like a concierge in a five star hotel!

Rabjohns proactive advice and professional planning are seriously impressive and worth every cent I pay them".

Edwin Buckhalter, Chairman and Managing Director,
Severn House Publishers Ltd, an important publisher in the Public Library market in the U.K., the U.S. and South Africa.

‘'Our business had always seen exceptional growth. Whilst this was exciting, it also brought its own challenges which needed addressing. Rabjohns helped us plan accordingly; from managing our board meetings; running our 400 strong payroll; helping us recruit, develop and retain a senior team to ultimately helping us plan our exit route. 

The latter came to fruition in 2004. Rabjohns helped select the external advisers we needed, gave excellent tax advice and held our hand through the whole process. They are a dynamic team who don't use tricks or fancy ideas, they simply give specific first class advice.''

Mark Ellis, co-founder of MandM Direct Ltd., the UK's largest sports mail order company which was the subject of an MBO in 2004.

"As a Members' organisation with a high profile role to play in the community, it is so vitally important that we keep our financial affairs in order. For many years the Bishop Fleming Rabjohns' team have been our twelfth man off the field. They don't necessarily receive the public recognition for a good job done but we know their real value".
