Ray has lived in South East Kent since he was sixteen.  He became a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales in 1991 having practised in Dover since qualifying as a chartered accountant in 1981.

Apart from a brief spell in Canterbury Ray’s practising life has been spent in Dover and Sandwich and as a consequence he has a strong knowledge of local business.  This knowledge is frequently employed when helping clients develop and expand their enterprise.
