The 2018 Maidenhead and Windsor Business Awards were launched at a recent lunch attended by local businesses, sponsors and a number of last year’s winners and finalists. It was revealed that Stephen Shanly, 4th fastest man to row the Atlantic solo, would be this year's compère.

Nicola Rogers, Commercial Manager of Baylis Media and member of the Maidenhead and Windsor Business Awards Steering Committee, launched the Awards by announcing that the compère at this year’s Awards ceremony will be entrepreneur and 4th fastest man to row the Atlantic solo, Stephen Shanly. Nicola urged local businesses to either nominate some of the great businesses that they know – and to enter themselves in up to three of the fifteen categories – all free of charge.

Dave Dyson, CEO of Three UK, winner of last year’s “Large Business” Award then gave an inspiring presentation on how Three UK has embedded a positive, well-balanced workplace culture throughout the organisation. Dave didn’t feel that this approach was the preserve of large multinational organisations as many of the steps taken by Three UK could successfully be rolled out by smaller organisations.

 

DRG Chartered Accountants is delighted once again to sponsor the Fast Growing Business Award and would encourage local businesses, of all sizes, to enter up to three of this year's fifteen categories. Winning an Award has many benefits. Last year’s finalists emphasised the value of the Award to help their teams feel recognised and how it can help with recruitment. The very process of entering can be useful – it requires a business to take time out and reflect on how far they might have come in a short while, the role of their teams and the impact of their strategy across their business.

"My company has used DRG for a number of years. They are proactive and efficient with all aspects of their work. They keep on top of our tax and accounting requirements, and help with the development of our business strategy.

We view DRG as a key supplier and crucially a partner and would highly recommend the firm – in particular to other fast growing businesses."

David Folkman, Director

"I’ve worked with a number of accountants over the years and have never found another company who offers the same level of care, support and professionalism. They’re always on hand to offer advice and guidance, above and beyond the service that I pay for. I would recommend them wholeheartedly."

Joe Hill, Director

"Very supportive and friendly company from day one."

Outdoor Academy

"I have always worked as an employee so when I decided to set up my own business, I did not know where to start. DRG took the time to explain how working as a sole trader would be more beneficial to me setting up a limited company (which I had always thought was a requirement for running a business). They gave me practical advice on the records I need to keep as well as general guidance on setting up my business and helped me claim a large tax refund after my first year of trading."

Sole Trader

"I have been a client through a number of different ventures with DRG since 2007. They have proved the benefits of a local firm with Big 4 experience in providing sound business and tax advice by being accessible, having in-depth knowledge of my business and able to form good working relationships at different levels with me and my staff. We also enjoy the benefit of their excellent accountancy and payroll services. I couldn’t recommend them more highly."

Paul Dunn-Sims, Halcyon Home Care

"I have been extremely impressed with the service level and attention to my business."

Sherwood Event Services

"DRG provide excellent services to Extrinsica Global that enable us to focus on our priority – growing the business."

Extrinsica Global

"A professional service at a competitive rate. Perfect for small businesses."

Design & Technical Management

"We have used DRG since our incorporation. They have supported our development providing sound business advice on top of our accounting requirements.

They are proactive and helpful in responding to queries and I would recommend them to any prospective client."

Rob Farrow, Alchemy Fireworks Ltd

"Daniel and his team at DRG provide a friendly service and are always able to explain issues in clear terms."

Kensington Communication Consultants

"An excellent service, good advice – we would recommend."
