The COVID-19 crisis is evolving rapidly, and so like many businesses, our response is developing and changing as we learn more and consider how we protect our staff and the wider community.

With that in mind, we have closed our offices until further notice.

Our phone lines are still open, but we won't be conducting any face-to-face meetings during this time. All of your Dewings team members are still available either by phone, email or your preferred method of video conferencing.

If you have documents or other items to drop off to us, please call ahead and make arrangements with us for collection, or leave them in the overnight box on the western side of the building near reception. We can also arrange for anything that requires a signature to be digitally signed, so please speak to us if this is an option you'd like to explore.

Finally, we understand that these are uncertain times for you and your business and/or financial affairs. We're here to help as we can. That's why we're offering a complimentary phone conference to help you navigate the road ahead.

If you have any questions about our new arrangements or need to organise a time to discuss your affairs further, please contact us.
