What does a bookkeeper do?

A bookkeeper records and organises a business's financial transactions, helping to ensure its financial records are accurate and up to date.

Do I need a bookkeeper if I use accounting software?

Accounting software can make bookkeeping easier, but it doesn't necessarily remove the need for professional support. Transactions still need to be recorded correctly, accounts reconciled and financial information reviewed.

Can you take over my existing bookkeeping?

We can work with your existing bookkeeping arrangements and help take over your bookkeeping where appropriate.

My bookkeeping is behind. Can you help?

If your bookkeeping has fallen behind, we can help you get your records organised and up to date before putting suitable ongoing support in place.

Do you provide bookkeeping services outside Kent?

Yes. Although we are based in Farnborough Village, we work with businesses across Kent, South London, Surrey, East Sussex and surrounding areas.

Tax planning that looks far beyond your tax return

Without proper tax planning, you could end up paying more tax than necessary or missing valuable reliefs and allowances available to you.

Completing your tax return correctly is not everything.

It is important to consider your circumstances before decisions are made, so you can understand the potential tax consequences and identify legitimate ways of managing your tax liability.

Depending on your circumstances, this may include:

Income tax
Corporation Tax
Capital Gains Tax
VAT
Tax allowances and reliefs
Business structure and remuneration
Timing of income or expenditure
The tax implications of selling or transferring assets
Tax-efficient business decisions

The right approach will depend on your individual or business circumstances.
