East Midlands Chamber has announced that longstanding patron Duncan & Toplis is to renew its patronage for 2026/2027.
The extended patronage enables Duncan & Toplis to engage with the Chamber’s 4000-strong membership across the East Midlands, in addition to having the opportunity to contribute to the shaping of policy when the Chamber liaises with policymakers.
Established in 1925, accounting and business advice provider Duncan & Toplis, part of Kinbrook Group, provides clients with access to broader specialist expertise across legal, wealth management and advisory services.
East Midlands Chamber Chief Executive Scott Knowles said: “Duncan & Toplis is one of the longest established businesses in the East Midlands and its over 100 years of expertise in accounting and advising firms has made it a firm the region can be proud of.
“A longstanding Chamber member, Duncan & Toplis extending its patronage will mean more businesses in our membership continue to benefit from that expertise. The Chamber’s insight into the challenges and opportunities faced by the business community, meanwhile, will be of great value as Duncan & Toplis moves forward, supporting firms long into its second century.
“I’m delighted Duncan & Toplis is to extend its patronage and look forward to working closely together into 2027.”

Duncan & Toplis CEO Damon Brain said: “As a member of East Midlands Chamber for the past eight years, we’ve seen first-hand the value it brings in connecting businesses across the region. Extending our patronage gives us an important opportunity to deepen those relationships, understand the challenges and opportunities businesses are facing, and share knowledge and best practice from across our own areas of expertise.
“Duncan & Toplis has deep roots in the East Midlands, so it’s important to us that we continue to play an active role in the regional business community. As part of Kinbrook, we can also draw on expertise from across a wider group of specialist businesses, enabling us to provide more joined-up support to businesses and their owners.
“Working closely with the Chamber enables us to further contribute to the conversations that matter to businesses and play our part in supporting the continued growth and prosperity of the East Midlands.”
