Our Core Values
It is hard to convey who we are on a website, after all you haven’t met us, you don’t know us, so, we all sat down and between us came up with what we consider to be our core values, the values that underpin our business and our approach, it goes without saying we are professionally qualified and technically capable, so what are our core values.
Trusted
Our advisors and their skills aren’t just tried and tested; they’re trusted too. We’re technically competent, experienced and completely confidential when working with our customers.

We’re not about the corporate feel. We’re a warm, friendly, approachable team who pride ourselves on communicating in layman’s terms – no silly bamboozle, just simple business.
Analytical
Our analytical skills are second to none; we certainly don’t take things at face value and in our industry, a keen eye for analysis can be the difference between standard assistance and excellent services.

Our door is always open. There’s no question too complicated, and no job too big or small. We want our customers to feel totally comfortable when seeking help and guidance, and they do.
What Our Clients Say
Jason, Nicola and Lauren are amazing at what they do. They put so much effort and time into everything they do, always going above and beyond to support me. I am so pleased I chose Holden Associates as my accountants and I wouldn't go anywhere else. Could not recommend them enough!
We have nothing but praise for Jason and the team in supporting us with our tax returns. Super fast service, so helpful and friendly, we cannot recommend them enough - they are awesome. Highly recommend having Jason and the team as your partners in working through the world of tax!
I have been a customer of Holden Associates for 3 years and I have never regretted choosing them as my financial advisors. They are specialists in every area I need for my business, from tax planning to bookkeeping and payroll. One of the things I appreciate most about them is their approachability; whenever I need to meet with them, I can easily pop into their office, and they always make time to listen to my concerns and answer my questions. They are also quick to respond to my queries, which is something I value greatly. I really appreciate the support of the whole team; Nicola who has patiently taught me how to do my bookkeeping and checked all my submissions to HMRC; Lauren who keeps me straight with my PAYE and accounts and of course Jason who gives me honest and brilliant advice. Finally, one of the reasons why I trust Holden’s with my financial affairs and ‘hard earned money’ is because they have been in business for a long time and I have the assurance that they will be around for many years to come, and that they have the expertise to assist me with any financial challenge that may come my way. I would highly recommend Holden Associates to anyone in need of a friendly, knowledgeable and reliable financial partner.
Jason and the team worked tirelessly to dig me out of a crypto-shaped hole. Knowledgable, professional and friendly - highly recommended.
Having been left in a total mess by our previous accountant on our LTD company, Holden Associates certainly have come to the rescue. We couldn't recommend them more, not only for the lengths they have gone to, to help us start to see a light at the end of the tunnel, but also their professional, friendly and supportive approach. They talk you through everything, so you understand and learn as business owner. If I could give them a10/10 I'd give them a 20!
I've found Jason and his team to be the perfect combination of expertise and guidance. They have a friendly, down-to-earth approach which really makes a big difference too. Fantastic company all round!
Jason, Lauren and the team are fantastic! They are very knowledgeable and extremely helpful. I would have no hesitation recommending them. Very professional and efficient and excellent value for money.
Highly recommended Holden associates I didn’t have a clue what I was doing with my accounts these have helped me out big timeThey are always there to help me out if I’m not sureThere a pleasure to deal with
Had a great experience for my tax return with Holden Associates - Jason and the wider team are great, really responsive, and make the jargon of tax really easy to understand. Highly recommend working with them!
Cannot recommend Holden Associates highly enough. They have supported our businesses for more almost 10-years. They understand your needs quickly and stay with you over the long run. Thank you
Left my old accountant as I believed they were biased towards my husband, whom I’m divorcing (meant to be acting in both of our interests) I hadn’t signed a tax return due to my belief that figures were incorrect and I was due to be fined a considerable sum, they drafted a letter and the fine was waived by HMRC.I have every confidence in Jason and his team to have my best interests at heart. They have a personal touch as a company and have offered me both practical advice and empathy, during a very difficult period….this has been invaluable to me.Thank you!
Everybody here has helped me tremendously this year and I couldn’t recommend them highly enough!
The Team at Holden Associates are an absolute pleasure to deal with and Jason went above and beyond when it came to advising on my situation. He also pointed me in the right direction for any aspects Holden Associates didn't specialise in themselves. Would definitely recommend!

This is a company that has completely changed my fear of filing tax returns and paperwork around. Jason, Nicola and Lauren are always very helpful, efficient and professional and I feel like I can completely rely on their thorough expertise. Fantastic team, and I consider myself lucky to have met them!
I feel comfortable in the knowing that they are professional and approachable and am pleased that they are looking after my business
Jason, Lauren and Nicola have been wonderful in rectifying all the mistakes our previous accountant made. They have worked tirelessly on our behalf and took away a lot of difficulties we faced. They have no issues at all in talking through everything with us, nothing is ever a problem to them. I cannot recommend them enough. If I could give 10 stars, I simply would.
Jason and Nicola have helped me from opening my business through to ensuring that I’m aware of all support available and changes during the Covid pandemic.
I contacted Holden Associates in September 2020, as for the first time in my life I left the comfort of employment to setup my own business. With so many elements of my business to setup, which were all new to me, contacting accountants was by far the most difficult. Many didn't return calls, some didn't come across professional and were focused on how cheap they were. My experience with Holden's was very different, they were genuinely helpful, shared valuable knowledge and provided free initial support. Jason, Nicola and Lauren have all been great support throughout my first year trading, always on hand to answer my questions and having just completed my year end accounts, I have seen the team in action from start to finish. Very impressed and would happily recommend to new business start ups and more established businesses.
Jason provided a fantastic service completing my Capital Gains Tax Return. It completely took the pressure & worry away knowing a professional was completing it, especially as there is a 30 day turn-around for CGT returns after selling a property. Thanks so much to Jason & his team
I’m absolutely delighted to have come across Jason and the team at Holden Associates. They tick all my boxes. They are responsive, professional, and respectful, with a down-to-earth approach that I really appreciate. They’ve offered me excellent guidance and they’re a pleasure to work with. Wholeheartedly recommend!
I am delighted to share my positive experiences from Jason and his dedicated team at Holden Associates.Jason has kindly assisted me with all TAX matters since 2018 of which his service has been outstanding, prompt, in-depth where needed, and very efficient. I thoroughly recommend that in requiring any form of TAX advice you make Jason your first choice.
Highly knowledgeable, informative and extremely helpful. I've had three accountants and Holden Associates are by far the most helpful and informative. Worth every penny and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.
Jason and the team are always helpful and keen to recommend items which will assist our business with essential next steps and growth.

I have worked with Holden Associates for some years now. They continue to provide professional yet friendly support for my business. I would highly recommend their services
The Holden team have always been a great support and help over the past 14 years for me. Nothing is ever too much trouble. Speedy service, efficiency and invaluable advice. Even now, in these Covid troubled times, they still find time for each and every client. They have been my husband's accountant from day one, over 20 years ago, and not once has he ever thought about switching firms. In one word: BRILLIANT! That's what they are. I can't recommend them enough👍 Top notch accountants.
I've been with Holden Associates for over ten years now and don't hesitate to give Jason and Nicola a 5 star recommendation. They genuinely care about their clients and go above and beyond to provide an exemplary service. They are also always ahead of the curve when it comes to the latest HMRC requirments and automations.
Excellent personal service, the staff deal with my needs promptly and are always ready to give professional advice.

Trustworthy, helpful and friendly are just a few words that spring to mind when I think of the Team at Holden Associates.Navigating tax efficiency is an extremely daunting venture but I have found it less burdensome with the help of Jason and the Team.This has enabled me to make better informed decisions and start my own business. Although in its infancy I see Holden Associates by my side for many years to come.
We have found the advice and support from Jason, Nicola, and Lauren at Holden Associates invaluable. Professional, friendly, helpful, and easy to contact when needed.
Holden Associates have been fantastic partners for our business, offering tailored advice and making the difficult things easy. Highly recommended!
Holden Associates were recommended to me over 10 years ago, I feel it only right to recommend them to you. I have had a number of challenging times during these past years. Jason and the team have always given me sound advise.Today, my business is operating at its best to date, I would be a fool to think I could of done it without an accountancy firm like Holden Associates.
