‘Laura came to us in November of 2022 because she was distressed about supporting her family over the oncoming festive season. They were living off of foodbank parcels and had been unable to top-up their electric pre-pay meter. Laura was concerned about being unable to provide home comforts and proper meals for their partners daughter who was coming to stay for Christmas.
An adviser made sure they were able to access basic living necessities such as clothes and toiletries and issued them a foodbank voucher. The fuel-voucher usually issued by the Warm & Wise team was incompatible with the client’s submeter so they were instead supported with £300 transferred to their account for energy costs.
Laura was emailed an additional £100 supermarket voucher so that she could switch her empty fridge-freezer back on ready to be stocked up for Christmas!’
First Intuition is the first accountancy training provider to become a signatory of Access Accountancy. Access Accountancy is a charity that collaborates with accountancy firms, professional bodies and organisations dedicated to improving access to, and progression within, the accountancy profession for applicants from lower socio-economic backgrounds in the UK.
Established in 2014, Access Accountancy works towards everyone having an equal chance of accessing and progressing within the accountancy profession based on merit, not background. The vision of Access Accountancy is to ensure that the accountancy profession is representative, at all levels, of the socio-economic demographic of wider society.
First Intuition Cambridge Limited will be working with Access Accountancy towards three milestones: Adopting, Contributing, and Influencing to increase the volume, scope and quality of activity to improve access to, and progression within, the accountancy profession for young people from disadvantaged backgrounds.
One of the ways First Intuition will achieve this is through its Accountancy Academy programme, a free virtual event created to invite students from across the country to find out more about the accountancy and finance industry and the careers available within it. Including sessions on routes into the industry, how to find roles, and tips on making a good impression with CV’s and at interviews.
Amy Forrest, Managing Director of First Intuition Cambridge Limited comments:
“I am really pleased that we have become a signatory for Access Accountancy!
“Our mission is to train accountants, and that’s all accountants. We want to make the accounting career more accessible to all, including those from disadvantaged backgrounds. Working with Access Accountancy and contributing to their important work is a big step towards this.
“We have a fantastic network of employers, students and alumni, and fantastic relationships with professional bodies, local groups, recruitment agents, think tanks, and many more. We will be looking at how we can do our part in this community to further promote accounting as a career to a more diverse group of people.”

This SundayLP Partner Jonathon Chaddand a family team of 5 others will be running the Bungay Black Dog half marathon to raise money for the East Coast Hospice. This charitable trust has secured land at Gorleston to build a 10 bed hospice which is now moving forward to the planning consent stage. This is a very worthwhile charity and I hope you will feel able to give it your support. In addition to inpatient end of life provision the Hospice will provide facilities for families to stay with patients and specialist palliative day care, alternative therapies, outreach homecare and educational training for those involved in the nursing profession.
We are aiming to get the whole team of runners to complete the circular course of 13 miles from Bungay to Beccles and back in an average of under 2 hrs and I hope that your support will motivate us to achieve that.
