DWD Ltd is a Company that turnovers £750K.
Mandair & Co have been our Accountants for the past 5/6 years.
Lauren Ford has been assigned to look after our account, with Tawny Rider looking after things that pop up. Lauren & Tawny both do an excellent job with the back up of Richard (Mandair) when required, with a wealth of Knowledge etc.
I recommended Mandair to a friend who's Turnover is £80K. Mandair's cost to him was very low considering the background support he has from them. From my experiences, I would fully recommend Mandair to any 1 man band or Small to Medium Based Business to do their accounts. KR. Charles Oliver (Managing Director)

I can’t recommend Mandair & Co enough! They’ve been my absolute guardian angels since becoming self employed and I love working with them. Amazing value for money, very responsive with a can-do attitude, always putting their clients first! 100% recommended.
Pollyanna Phillips
Amri and the team have made my first 2 years of self-employment super easy and stress free! They are great at explaining things I’m not sure about, they are quick at responding to emails and always provide me with great advice on how to be more efficient with books etc. I would highly recommend to anyone, top quality service!

I have used mandair accountants for over 10 years and they have always been very friendly helpful when I have needed their help with my accounts. The team are always very attentive with my affairs which gives me great peace of mind.
Cannot recommend them enough
Lynnette Pack
Richard, Tawny, Ayesha and the team, have looked after our company and personal accounts for around the last 20 years. They are now dealing with the two company closures as we are retiring, but I will continue to use their services for our personal tax. Richard is very approachable and will always help, as does Tawny. Their pricing is reasonable and although possibly not the cheapest, is well worth the cost for the services they provide. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Mandair & Co.
BEST Autocentres Ltd
We have used Mandair & co as our accountants for over 10 years. We did try another company who promised the earth for a short while, but soon found that we were paying twice the price for no extra value and returned to Richard and his team.
