We are delighted to share some exciting news about the continued growth of Spurling Cannon. On 1 October 2025, we officially welcomed Cantium Accountants in Tonbridge into the Spurling Cannon family, marking the opening of our third office and an important step in our long-term expansion across Kent.
Cantium Accountants, founded by Andrew Bradley in 2002, has been a trusted and well-established firm in the Tonbridge community for more than two decades. With Andrew planning for retirement, we were honoured to be chosen as the firm he felt would best look after both his clients and his dedicated team.
A smooth transition and continuity for clients
One of the most important aspects of this acquisition is continuity. We are delighted that three members of the Cantium team, Jana, Gillian, and Simla, have transferred to Spurling Cannon and will continue supporting clients day-to-day from the Tonbridge office. Many clients will already know them well, and we are pleased to ensure the familiarity and personal service they’re used to will continue.
The Tonbridge office is now headed up by Sam Graham, one of our Directors, who grew up locally and is excited to return to an area he knows well.
“I’m really looking forward to getting to know Cantium’s clients and supporting local businesses across Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells,” says Sam. “Our goal is to provide the same approachable, personal service clients expect, with the added benefit of the wider resources, expertise and specialist knowledge available across Spurling Cannon.”
A positive milestone for Andrew Bradley
Andrew Bradley, founder of Cantium, has been working closely with Sam and the team over the past few months to ensure a seamless handover.
“This was an important decision for me as I approached retirement,” Andrew explains. “What mattered was finding a firm whose ethos matched ours, professional, friendly, and focused on doing things properly. I’m confident our clients and staff are in very safe hands with Spurling Cannon.”
Andrew will remain involved until late December to support the transition before beginning a well-earned retirement.
Strengthening our presence across Kent
The acquisition of Cantium Accountants is an exciting next chapter for Spurling Cannon. With established offices in Ramsgate and Charing (Ashford), the opening of our Tonbridge office expands our footprint across Kent and strengthens our support for individuals and businesses in the region.
As an independently owned firm with more than 70 staff and nine Directors, we continue to grow while maintaining the personal, approachable ethos that has been at the heart of Spurling Cannon since 2003.
Looking ahead
We are committed to investing in the Tonbridge office and have plans to expand our team and services there in the coming year. Whether you are a long-standing Cantium client or new to Spurling Cannon, we are excited to work with you.
If you have any questions about the transition, or if you would like to arrange a conversation with Sam or the Tonbridge team, please feel free to get in touch.
Welcome to the next chapter for Spurling Cannon.
