One of the oldest accountancy in Norwich, Larking Gowen began back in 1888, originally set up by Charles Larking in Norwich, then in 1969, the company merged with another Norwich accountants Harman & Gowen, thus Larking Gown was formed and has continued to grow into the company we know today. Now one of the UK’s top 40 accountancy firms with eight offices across the region. It is a company that has certainly managed growth and seen a number of changes in all our working practices over the years. Staff wellbeing is certainly now at the heart of Larking Gowen since they launched their wellbeing programme. This programme is continually evolving and developing through engagement with their staff and Wellbeing Champions. It is great to see Larking Gowen’s forward thinking and investment in their staff support. This has gained them recognition and is now part of their working culture.
