We’re a colourful bunch at Chapman Worth who love what we do.

Matthew is one of the founder partners of Chapman Worth. He qualified with a large, international firm before forming Chapman Worth with Anna in 2003. Outside of work, Matthew enjoys travelling, eating out and days at the (horse) races. For a number of years now, he’s also held a season ticket at Oxford United in the continuing hope that they’ll once again have cause to celebrate!

Anna is one of the founder partners of Chapman Worth. She held senior roles with larger Oxfordshire firms before forming Chapman Worth with Matthew in 2003. As well as looking after the young Chapmans, Anna enjoys travel, eating out, cooking and reading. Keeping fit also features highly, usually before or after one of the nights out!

Mark runs the Witney office of Chapman Worth. Prior to transitioning to the world of accountancy, he’d built up a wealth of experience in several other industry sectors – bringing a commercial focus and understanding that clients really value in a close business relationship.

When not in the office, Mark loves to spend as much time as possible camping and caravanning with his wife and their two boys. Outside of family, he enjoys a good night out with friends, is an avid F1 fan, and can sometimes be found at the races or attending ball sports – whatever their shape or size!

Elaine re-joined the firm in 2018 after a brief spell in industry. She will be based in our Witney office after previously spending seven years in Wantage. She deals mainly with small companies and charities.

Outside of work, Elaine enjoys visiting her son at university and trying to keep up-to-date with technology so she can understand his computing science course. She regularly attends a local pub quiz, and enjoys creative crafts.

Natalie gained her ACCA qualification in 2016 having already gained her AAT qualification. She works (almost) full-time in the Accounts Team of the East Hendred office. Away from work, her time’s spent busily looking after her children! Family holidays are always something that Natalie looks forward to, along with getting together with friends.

Shirley is our Small Business Specialist, and has excellent knowledge of all areas of accounts, including VAT and payroll. She joined Chapman Worth in 2005 having been recruited from another Oxfordshire accountancy practice. In her free time, Shirley loves being with her dogs, eating out and following her favourite football team – Chelsea.

Laura is the firm’s Xero Champion having joined Chapman Worth in November 2012. During that time she gained her AAT qualification and then in 2019 her ACCA qualification.

In her spare time she likes to see her friends, listen to her favourite band, One Direction and watch her favourite football team, Manchester United. Come on you Reds! Oh dear.

After several years in the bakery industry, Domenic opted for a career change. He joined in 2016 having recently completed the AAT qualification.

Originally from Edinburgh, he now lives in Wantage with his partner and 2 young daughters.

Aside from spending time with his family, Domenic enjoys blasting away on his drum kit and is a connoisseur of Metal Music.

Doreen works exclusively in personal taxation and is responsible for the department’s smooth operation and performance.

Beyond work, she enjoys the outdoors: countryside-walking with her three Springer spaniels, and gardening (both vegetables and flowers which she finds very therapeutic). Socialising with friends and eating out is also high on Doreen’s list, along with travelling to Australia with her husband, to visit family there.

Sarah is AAT qualified and based full-time in our Witney office. Like many in our team, she’s gained a broad experience of other industry sectors enabling her to quickly understand the essentials of any business she looks after.

Outside of work, Sarah enjoys days out and trips to the park with her daughter. When she does have time to herself, she enjoys indulging her passion of fashion and shopping, baking, walking and the odd workout.

Laura works part-time in payroll.

Married with two children, she loves spending her spare time taking long family walks in the countryside, reading and listening to music. Her long-term ambition is to learn to play the saxophone – when she has the time to devote to it!

Gill recently joined our growing Payroll Team, having switched from a career in the banking sector. Married with two grown-up sons, she enjoys walking, researching her family history and eating out. Gill also captains the local darts team in which Marion plays, so perhaps it's time for an office dart board!
