Chartered Accountants & Business Advisors
We are the most established firm of chartered accountants in the North East. Founded in 1918, our firm has grown to become one of the leading chartered accountants in the local area. With over 100 years of experience in the industry, we have become well known for the accounting services and individual advice that we provide to businesses.

After 5 years in business and not feeling at all confident with my previous accountants I had a call from Mark Porrit introducing himself and to ask if he could offer us anything better than what we were currently receiving. It was the best thing I could have done!
Sarah Gallagher, Director at Gallaghers
Great accountants with you every step of the way and always keep you updated with changes in law & government. Always one step ahead when it comes to planning tax & future growth.
Hendersons Property Services Ltd
I have used M Wasley Chapman & Co. ever since I started my driving school business 14 years ago. Nothing is too much for the team and they respond very quickly with any problems I may have. They are very professional and explain things to me in non technical terms which makes it much easier for me to understand.
Robert Anscome
One of the best decisions I have made was asking Walsey Chapman & Co to take over the running of payroll for my business. Having looked after the tax affairs of the business for many years and offering excellent service and advice it was a sensible decision. All the stresses and worries have been taken away.
