Expert Services
1. Audit
Statutory audits are legally required where an entity is not eligible for exemptions under the Companies Act or other relevant legislation like the Charities Act 2011.
A company can also elect to undergo an audit despite it not being a legal requirement, such as in the following cases.
- To prove to third parties such as potential investors, banks and suppliers that its financial information is reliable.
- To discourage any potential fraud.
An audit entails a detailed review and deep understanding of the company’s business, accounting records and systems of internal controls.
The understanding gained often leads to helpful proactive advice on various business matters.
Our firm is authorised by the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales to carry out audit work.
The work will be conducted to the highest standard expected by our Institute and at a competitive price.

Annual Accounts preparation
Regardless of structure — sole trader, partnership or limited company — every business must prepare annual accounts.
For sole traders and partnerships, these accounts form the basis of their self-assessment tax returns.
Limited companies must prepare their accounts in a statutory format and file them with Companies House within ten months of their year end.
Our objective in preparing accounts is to ensure statutory compliance and highlight areas where we can help reduce your tax burden.
Once complete, we go through the accounts with you to explain business performance and recommend future improvements.
