Year-end accounts are a statutory obligation for all limited companies and LLPs filing with Companies House — but they are also a vital business tool. These accounts are publicly accessible, meaning suppliers, customers, and potential investors can review them. Credit agencies also rely on them when assessing your company’s financial health. For these reasons, it’s essential that your accounts are accurate, compliant, and professionally presented.

At our firm, we ensure your year-end accounts go beyond compliance. We make them clear, reliable, and a strong reflection of your business.

Our Approach

We tailor our service to meet your needs. This can include:

• Advising which regulatory standards apply to your business.

• Providing a pro-forma set of accounts for your finance team to complete.

• Preparing a full set of accounts on your behalf, ready for your review and approval.
  
  

The accounting framework has evolved significantly in recent years, and change continues. From International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) to FRS 102 and the simplified FRS 105 for micro-entities, staying compliant requires specialist knowledge and attention to detail.

For many SMEs, this can be a time-consuming distraction from running the business. Our role is to remove that burden, giving you peace of mind that your accounts are always up to date and fully compliant.

VAT is one of the most complex areas of tax, with frequent changes in legislation, HMRC policy, and case law. Mistakes can be costly — in both cash and time — which is why expert support is essential.

Our VAT team helps SMEs stay compliant, reduce risks, and optimise their VAT position.

Our services include:

• Preparing and submitting VAT returns and claims.

• Advising on VAT treatment of business activities and transactions.

• Supporting with HMRC enquiries and inspections.

• Guidance on VAT for property and land transactions.

• Specialist advice on partial exemption and recovery.

• International VAT compliance and structuring.
  
  

We take time to understand your business and tailor our advice to your needs — whether you are expanding, restructuring, or managing day-to-day VAT compliance. With our proactive support, you can be confident your VAT affairs are accurate, efficient, and aligned with your business goals.

Professional Integrity

All income statements and letters are issued based on information provided by the client and reviewed for consistency with HMRC records.
We do not provide immigration legal advice — our role is strictly limited to accounting and financial verification.

If you’ve received a letter from HMRC, or realised that you have income that was not declared, we can help you put things right — quickly, confidentially, and professionally.

Our accountants assist clients who need to disclose undeclared income or respond to HMRC investigations. Whether it’s overseas interest, rental income, or missing Self Assessment returns, we help you make a full and accurate disclosure, reducing penalties and stress.

We can:

- Review your situation and explain your options.

- Calculate any tax, interest and penalties that may be due.

- Prepare and submit your disclosure to HMRC.

- Communicate with HMRC on your behalf and manage all correspondence.

- Making a voluntary disclosure before HMRC contacts you can significantly reduce penalties and reduce the risk for you from potential legal consequences.

Our role is to ensure your figures are accurate, your disclosure is complete, and the process is handled with care and professionalism. All cases are treated in strict confidence.
