We remain the friendly face of accountancy in the Huddersfield area.”

Jonathon Dickens, Partner at the SMH Group: “We are thrilled to announce the merger of Sheards into the SMH Group, marking a significant milestone for both firms, and increasing the overall head count within the group to over 150 staff.

“This strategic alliance not only ensures long-term stability for the firm, but also offers a range of value-added services available to clients of Sheards. Furthermore, it enhances our expansion into West Yorkshire, as the SMH Group continues its aim of becoming the go to professional services firm in the region.”
