Our charity & not-for-profit accountancy services include:

Independent examination services

Although charities and not-for-profit organisations can benefit from an audit, smaller organisations could find an independent examination more useful and cost-effective. If you are a trustee of a charity, then it is important to remember that the Charities Commission requires an independent examination on your charity’s accounts if your annual income is over £25,000. Audits tend to be a lot more complex and can be required by law. If you fall into the following two categories, then the Charities SORP requires your accounts to be audited:

Our independent examination services can also include:

A report by the Charity Commission stated that only 70% of the accounts they reviewed met their requirements. This means that 30% of organisations submitting their figures risk fines and financial uncertainty in the future.

Bookkeeping and management accounts services

Unlike most businesses, charities will obtain their income from several sources, such as donations or grants. Income could get lost or combined with other revenue, leading to inaccurate figures being produced. By using cloud accounting software, charities can record and split out their income by source easily, allowing them to monitor their income streams effectively.

 

The data could also be split further by site/departments. You may have several charity shops across a wide range of areas, for example. Using some of the applications available with cloud accounting software, a charity can obtain daily sales reports directly from the shop tills. Performance can then be monitored, with accurate, real-time information, which allows you to make strategic decisions more easily.

Our bookkeeping services for charities can include:
