The people behind the company! Introducing the staff, our practices and our working culture.
The heritage of DPC Group Limited originated with Edwin Downward on February 9, 1943 who set up shop as a sole practitioner in Wellesley Street, Stoke-on-Trent.
Welcoming John Plumb in 1962 and Mike Colclough in 1963, the firm became known as Downward, Plumb and Colclough – later adopting the acronym DPC.
Over the course of its rich history as a firm of accountants in Newcastle-Under-Lyme, Stoke-on-Trent (80-years celebrated in July 2023) DPC has gone from strength to strength embracing many changes and a commitment to constant innovation.
When computers were a fledgling industry, DPC took a chance by investing into new technology by spending £3,500 on a revolutionary Logabax accounting machine in June 1967.
The investment enabled advanced accounting (at the time) for some of Staffordshire’s most prominent businesses. The efficiency in financial affairs resulted in many of these organisations achieving international success.
Since Edwin’s ‘accounting vision’ launched in 1943, the company has grown steadily to employ over 60 people today, making DPC one of Staffordshire’s largest accountancy practices.

How to make sure your personal finances stay on track
Your business can be doing well financially but you can still feel uncertain about where your personal finances are heading.
For many business owners, wealth has built up gradually and unevenly. For instance, you might have various pensions opened for tax reasons, personal savings and investments built up from good trading years, and surplus cash held in the business “just in case”. You may also be counting on the future sale value of your business.
