Fusion Joinery are a bespoke joinery solutions business based in the North East of England, manufacturing a range of made-to-order timber products for commercial, residential and domestic projects. We have grown strongly in recent years, but have relied upon external equipment hire to deliver larger projects. We have the opportunity to secure further large contract work, however in order to be more competitive we identified the need to own our own crane. Whilst we were able to source a suitable crane, the investment required was significant and we needed some financial support.
The grants advisory team at Clive Owen supported us in securing a substantial grant from the Business Growth Fund capital grant scheme. The Clive Owen team took the bid writing process off our hands and delivered a very quick turnaround, allowing us to access the funding just before the scheme closed. We have now been able to acquire the crane and have pressed on with our growth plans which include new contracts and new employment.
I strongly suggest that businesses seeking grant support consider utilising the expertise of Carl Wright and his team at Clive Owen LLP.

At Syselek, we develop innovative technology and toolchain solutions for transport decarbonisation and automation. We have been very fortunate to receive grant funding from Innovate UK. This has helped develop several of our innovative solutions.
One recent project was Fleet AI Recharging (“FAIR”). It explored new AI-based algorithms to accurately predict the energy consumption of electric HGVs. This enables live decisions about smart charging. These decisions help reduce operating costs and accelerate decarbonisation of the freight and logistics sector.
We began working with Clive Owen LLP two years ago. Since then, they have supported all our grant funding audit requirements. Their approach to the audit process is very smooth and intuitive. Their guidance has been easy to follow. Their quick responses to our questions have ensured our full compliance in all grant funding claims. This has enabled us to close out all our projects promptly.
We have been really impressed with the support from the grants team over these last two years. We are fully confident in their support going forward. We would certainly recommend Clive Owen’s grants team to anyone seeking Innovate UK grant funding audit services.

“Clive Owen was recommended to me by a friend and business associate. Naturally, you are hesitant when it comes to accounting, finance and taxation.  Especially for established businesses with long-standing service providers. However, the transition to Clive Owen has been the most Enlightening and beneficial decision I’ve made as a business owner.  I cannot be more appreciative to every team member within the organisation I’ve dealt with. Looking forward to a long-standing partnership”.

The Brontë Society looks after the Brontë Parsonage, which was home to the Brontë sisters.

The museum houses the largest collection of Brontë material, including manuscripts and furniture that date back to the 1800’s.

The museum has thousands of visitors from across the globe each year and has been a valued client of Clive Owen LLP for over a decade, mainly working alongside charities expert, Chris Beaumont. 

Rebecca, director at the society, ” As well as the things that have to happen like the accounts and the audit, it has been the additional support and advice given on an ad-hoc basis that has been valuable. We feel like we can come to Clive Owen LLP for open and honest advice, as a critical friend.”
