ABOUT US

Accountants seem alien to most of us. You can't understand a word they are saying and they seem to be living in a world of their own.

As a client, you'll find our approach refreshingly different. Apart from being human and having a sense of humour, we actually talk in plain English. You'll even look forward to coming to our office, having a chat and meeting the office dog.

Our dress code? Jeans and t-shirt (we'll wear suits if you want us to). On top of that, we are good at what we do. Honest.

There is a downside. We have the Eagles on the CD player. It's not fashionable music but, like us, it's simple, honest and makes you smile.

OUR SERVICES

Our real speciality is making life easier for smaller businesses, from one man (or woman) bands to companies with up to £5 million turnover.

By banning all jargon, you'll understand what we're talking about so you can easily see how your finances will affect your business. We can also help you to plan your business more efficiently and profitably - bank managers love us.

Of course, you haven't got the time or inclination to do your own accounts. Stick with what you're best at and you'll make money. Give your accounts to us and you'll probably make even more.

You get all the usual stuff from an accountant but without the attitude:

* Helping people start a business and deal with the red tape
* Cashflows and projections for banks and to help control a business
* Helping people who want to buy or sell a business
* Setting up Limited companies
* Management accounts
* Year - end accounts for sole traders, partnerships and Limited companies
* Preparation of VAT returns and day-to-day bookkeeping
* Payroll
* Training on SAGE and how to keep effective business records
* Advice on saving tax, VAT and National Insurance
* Advice and help on company structures
* Dealing with H M Revenue and Customs
* Advice on how to save inheritance tax
* Help with the figures for mortgage applications
* Preparing self-assessment tax returns for all sorts of people - including those with property portfolios, the Clergy, and various higher rate and wealthy taxpayers
* And finally, stuff; all the bits that don't fit into the above but are vaguely money related.

Our approach means we get to know you and what you want from life. And that's reflected in how we manage your affairs
