What we do
We do what accountants do...
...which is not as unhelpful as it seems.
If you are looking for an accountant, you obviously think an accountant can help you. And you are probably right.
And we could make a long list (tax, vat, audit...) of all the things we do regularly. But that's a bit like insisting that the vegetarian reads all the steak menu...
You will not want to use all our skills. Or even 90% of them. Just the bits that apply to your unique circumstances.
If you're already in business...
...then there's a reason you're looking for a change.
Maybe you feel you've outgrown your accountants.Or they seem to be difficult to get hold of. Or never return your calls.
Or maybe your just reviewing your costs.

If you're just starting up...
...you don't know what you need to know - but you want to know it all. Now!
Starting up by yourself for the first time is daunting. The list of Things To Think About seems endless.
Limited, partnership, sole trader? VAT? PAYE? National Insurance? Bookkeeping?...
Most of it's not that difficult. Honestly. And much of it is routine form filling. New to you - old hat to us. The trick, of course, is knowing what are the difficult bits. And avoiding the problems.
If you're a Charity...
...then you may be able to use Hilary's particular skills. If you're worried about your SOFAs, and "restricted or unrestricted" is still a problem, give her a call.
Jargon
Yes, SOFAs, restricted, unrestricted - it's all jargon. Jargon is useful as shorthand if we both know what it means. At other times it's useless (or even downright rude).
If you don't know what a technical term means, it's not your fault. It's our fault. For not explaining it properly. We do try to make it all sound simple.
What we do not do...
We do not do anything we cannot do well. If we do not have the specialist skills for a particular task, we don't bluff. Or have a stab at it, regardless. We turn the work away. (We don't, for instance, handle insolvencies.)
But we don't turn work away very often.
