Chris Purcell
Director & Owner
I’m Chris and I originally started this business from my bedroom many years ago, while having a day job. Over time it grew, then I moved into an office, took on two staff members, of whom are still working with us today. We thrive on the customer service and the personal touch with it. It’s this core value we bring to our clients.
Outside of work, my son and I take part in go-karting championships and actively take part in many UK races across the country. Like Richard, I am into motorsport and cars, my all time hero is Ayrton Senna. Football is another passion as a Liverpool supporter the office banter can be high at times.
Richard Lockwood
Director & Owner
I am Richard a Director at Purcell Accountants. I have worked in accountancy for over 25 years in Corporate and general accountancy & taxation. I have been involved with the Company from October 2019 and became a Director in June 2020. I really enjoy being with Purcell’s for both the camaraderie and family atmosphere we bring to the team and to clients.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my two boys and the family. I have many interests, of which Motorsport both 4 and 2 wheels are a big part of it, from club motorbike racing to F1 and BSB. Along with travel, football – I am a Manchester United supporter and listening to music. I am also a petrolhead so I love anything to do with cars, car shows, car detailing and love my own collection.
