“LRG shared that commitment from the outset. For our clients and teams, it will be business as usual, with the same local leadership, colleagues and approach to service.

Wiggett added: “It will create new opportunities for the Henry Adams brand, as well as greater training, development and career progression for our people.
“This is an exciting next chapter for the business, and we are looking forward to building on everything Henry Adams has achieved over the past 200 years.”

“It’s a brand I have long admired for its reputation, built on strong local knowledge, long-standing client relationships, and a clear commitment to service, making it a very strong addition to LRG.
“We understand how important the Henry Adams name and identity are to its clients and its people.”
Light added: “The brand, local teams and existing leadership will remain in place, with LRG providing the wider investment, resources and support to help the business continue to grow.
“The acquisition significantly strengthens our presence across the South of England and creates opportunities to extend the Henry Adams brand into new areas over time.”
