Dear Friends and Colleagues,

I’m pleased to share some exciting news about the future of Douglas Green Consulting.

We have officially been acquired by Westcotts, a long-established and highly respected firm of accountants and business advisors with deep roots across the South West. This partnership brings together two teams with a shared commitment to rural business, strong practical farming experience, and a track record of delivering real-world solutions that work on the ground.

For you — our clients and colleagues in the farming and land-based sectors — this means even greater support. By joining forces with Westcotts, we’re strengthening our business focused consultancy offer, especially in areas such as:  

  • Financial planning and Business Management

  • Dairy Technical Consultancy - Independent Nutrition  

  • Nutrient Planning and Grant Applications

  • Tenancy Applications, Contract Farming Agreements and  Succession Planning

We understand farming from the inside out — our advice is rooted in day-to-day experience and practical know how, not just spreadsheets. That won’t change.

I will continue to lead the business, with the support of my team. This merger ensures the long-term future of our consultancy and our team, giving us the backing we need to support you for years to come.

Importantly, there is no expectation from Westcotts that clients move their existing accounting or advisory relationships. This is about enhancing what we do, not replacing your current professional team.

Over the coming weeks, you’ll start to see our branding evolve to reflect this exciting change. The new name, Westcotts Green Farm Business Consulting will honour both Douglas Green Consulting and Westcotts, symbolising the best of both worlds.

Thank you sincerely for your continued trust and support. If you’d like to talk through what this means for you, or if you’re thinking about a new project and want to explore your options, my door is always open.
