Our Clients Love Us!

Over the past few days, Ellacott Morris have gone way above the expectation in terms of service with regular updates for those of us affected by the Corona Virus working restrictions, whether existing customers of theirs or not. Thank you so much for all you are continuing to do.

Lucy Rosina

We've been a client of EM for a few years now, can't fault them. Got my parents to switch as well and they were amazed at the savings they made while receiving a quality service. What has really impressed me is the advice given, free of charge, in the time of the coronavirus crisis.

Kate Marsham

They have been amazing, really helped us when I lost my dad and when I took over and bought GCS Alarms. They moved us from Sage to Xero accounts program. Their staff are also really nice and great with my customers too. Highly recommend.

Paul Dewing

I was introduced to Michelle at Ellacott Morris by my financial adviser. From the first meeting I felt at ease as my tax affairs were a bit of a mess to say the least. Everything was explained to me and a way forward proposed. Since then Jordan has been doing all the paperwork and everything getting sorted. Great firm to be associated with, very professional and friendly staff

Peter Marks

Since starring my martial arts business in 2021 EWRK martial arts club, Ellacott and Morris have supported every step of the way right from grass roots to a growing business. They have enabled me to focus on my business and I don't have to worry about the accounts and being compliant.

Alistair Thomson

As always Ellacott Morris done a great job with my tax returns. Bimala has been really helpful for me over the last couple of years and couldn't recommend them enough.

Jack Harmon

Contacted Ellacott Morris near end of year deadline and they were more than happy to help. Gave me some great advice and helped me with a lot of things I didn’t understand. Efficient, effective and very pleased with their service. Really personal touch and supportive (even with my stupid questions) thanks so much!

Leanne Bourne

Anjuli has been amazing for me and my company. She's always on hand answering questions when I need them answered, and prompt in her responses. Would definitely recommend.

Frankie Bowers

I’ve been using Ellacott Morris for three years now and it was the best decision I made as a Sole Trader. They’ve taken away the stress of doing my own accounts as my business has continually grown. I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Highly recommended.
