The official definition is “Bookkeeping is defined as the accurate recording of financial data. Accountants interpret and report on that data. Bookkeepers lay the groundwork for accountants, providing the data that is essential to the performance of their role”. Basically we, as Bookkeepers, manage the day to day finances of your business. We ensure all daily income and expenditure is accurately recorded within the accounts and vat is correctly calculated. We ensure customers are paying businesses on time and suppliers are being paid on time, managing the cash flow. This means that, at any point, we can provide you with an accurate and most importantly, a live financial snapshot of your business’s finances. We, of course, are keeping you compliant with HMRC along the way! Accountants are then using the financial data for their role - dealing with your end of year tax planning and business future planning, and if you have a great accountant, to discuss your finances/future growth plans at your quarterly review meetings.

Absolutely! You can confirm our practise licence number, 23733, with  The Institute of Certified Bookeepers.  Moreover, we maintain Professional Indemnity and Employers Liability Insurance as necessary.
