Accountancy firm celebrates 30 years in business
Torevell Dent accountancy practice was formed by Mike Torevell and Ian Dent in 1986 at the Pellon Lane offices which they still occupy, although long since expanded by purchasing the whole block.
There were three staff members and the two partners at the beginning and the name of Torevell Dent soon became well known around the town as other Professionals and the Inland Revenue mischievously linked it to two well known world class ice skaters at the time.

“It is very rewarding to see how many of our clients have grown with our help over the years, and to be able to celebrate our 30th anniversary with them. Quite a few of them having been with us from the very beginning.”
In 1992 and 1994, offices in Huddersfield and Bradford were opened.
In 2002 Torevell Dent introduced Financial Services products to its portfolio of services to clients before selling this off to the incumbent Financial Services Team in 2005.
