CIC's
Accounts for Community Interest Companies (CICs)As with all other incorporated charities and companies, the directors of CICs are required to deliver copies of their accounts for each financial year (including a director’s report) to the Registrar of Companies who will place them on the public file. We are able to offer a low-cost high-quality service to provide you with a set of accounts which, in addition to the statutory requirement, many CICs find useful for funding applications..

Accounts for Unincorporated Charities with an income of less than £25,000
Many smaller charities and not for profit organisations find it difficult to meet the cost of fully compliant accounts, and with the changes in legislation, charities with an income of less than £25,000 are no longer required to submit formal accounts to the Charity Commission. However many charities still need to put together annual accounts, especially when submitting funding applications. We serve many charities that are in this range and our team are always delighted to find out more about the amazing work going on around the country.
