Furley Page celebrates 300 years in Kent 

 South East law firm Furley Page is planning a year of celebratory and charitable events to commemorate its 300-year anniversary.  

Furley Page began in 1725 in Canterbury, originally practising in Burgate before relocating to St Margaret’s Street from 1830, where its head office remains.

Evolving through mergers, expansion and strategic partnerships, the firm has adapted over the years to incorporate modern legal structures while retaining its commitment to delivering excellent client service and expert legal advice to individuals and business clients across the South East and the wider UK.

To celebrate the 300-year milestone, the firm has planned a full calendar of events, including charitable activities, sponsorships and sports competitions, kicking off with support for the Canterbury 10-mile race on 26 January.

Susan Jennings, partner and head of corporate at Furley Page, chairs a working group which has organised the celebrations. Susan said: “We are extremely proud of our firm’s heritage, and to reach 300 years is a momentous anniversary for any business.

“In keeping with our values, we are keen to celebrate this special year with our staff, clients and the community that the firm has served for so long.  

“Furley Page has a long tradition with Canterbury, and we’ve supported some clients and local families for generations. Many of our anniversary events will focus on ways we can contribute to our community, which is a core focus at Furley Page.

“Our charity, the Furley Page Foundation, will play a key role in raising money for good causes this year, and the firm will be announcing a range of social and community projects as part of our celebrations.” 

Jeremy Licence, Furley Page managing partner, said: “In 2025, with 150 colleagues and 19 partners, Furley Page continues to go from strength to strength.

“We look forward to sharing information about all our events and details of opportunities for our staff, clients and local residents to get involved in our fundraising efforts throughout this special celebratory year.”
