Increasing demands have been placed on those governing and managing charities as a result of the changing legal environment, a complex tax regime and the increased need to demonstrate accountability. We recognise that advising charities and not for profit organisations is a specialist area.

Several of our partners have had experience of acting as charity trustees. This puts them in a strong position to understand and empathise with your concerns. We are familiar with the particular challenges facing this sector and can offer help in the following areas:

• Preparation of charity accounts that are compliant with the Charities Act and the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP)
• Audits and independent examinations
• Advising on the appropriate treatment of specific funds
• Advising on efficient accounting systems
• Audits required by funding bodies
• Assistance with installation, configuration and training on specialist accountancy packages carried out by our IT services division
• Tax planning and advice
• Advice on VAT and Gift Aid Claims
• Payroll
