Meet our Ashford accountants team
Don Murrell,
Don is a seasoned entrepreneur with a diverse portfolio, having successfully managed over twenty businesses across various sectors. His journey into finance led him to become a certified Chartered Accountant in 2000. With a deep understanding of the financial landscape, Don founded Accounts Unlocked in 2003, a practice that carved out a niche in providing specialised accounting services to cryptocurrency and foreign exchange traders.
Under Don’s leadership and through a strategic partnership with Rebecca Moye, Accounts Unlocked flourished, achieving an impressive annual turnover of £1.5 million. The practice’s reputation for expertise and innovation caught the eye of Affinity Associates, leading to a significant milestone in March 2021 when Accounts Unlocked was acquired, with Don joining the Affinity team to further their shared vision of excellence in accounting services.

How it began for these Ashford accountants
In 2003, Don Murrell, Rose Murrell, and Rebecca Moye came together to create something special in Ashford: Accounts Unlocked, an ACCA-Regulated practice. Their combined accounting expertise, knowledge of tax optimisation, and passion for exceptional customer service were evident from the word go.
No wonder word spread about them, and their client base quickly grew through referrals by its existing client base! By 2014, Accounts Unlocked reached a pivotal juncture, acquiring the well-regarded accounting firm Nicolaou Dearle & Co. This wasn’t just a merger; it was a union of shared values and visions.
This move brought a surge in clientele to over 1,000, all nurtured by a 20-member strong team, overseen by their trio of directors. And to accommodate this surge, a grand new office sprang up in Ashford.
How they became a part of Affinity Associates
The journey of Accounts Unlocked, though, didn’t stop there. With 1,500 loyal clients under their belt, they shifted to the modern Bizspace building in Ashford in 2021.
And then, a moment they had eagerly anticipated: they united forces with Affinity Associates. This wasn’t just a business move; it was about blending strengths.
With the extensive expertise at Affinity Associates, they’re poised to deliver unparalleled service to individuals and businesses in Ashford and surrounding areas in Kent and enhance the international planning offerings for their clients.
