Frequently asked questions

What does an accountant for charities do?

An accountant for charities handles financial reporting, independent examinations, gift aid claims, and compliance with charity regulations. They prepare annual accounts in line with the Charities SORP, assist with HMRC submissions, and advise trustees on financial governance. Their work ensures transparency and helps charities maintain their charitable status whilst meeting legal obligations.

Why should a charity use an ACCA or ICAEW qualified accountant?

ACCA and ICAEW qualified accountants have undergone rigorous training and are regulated, ensuring high professional standards. They understand complex charity accounting rules, including fund accounting and SORP requirements. Their expertise helps charities avoid errors in tax returns and reporting, providing trustees with confidence that finances are managed correctly and compliantly.

Do charities need to submit a tax return to HMRC?

Most charities are exempt from Corporation Tax on charitable income, but they may still need to submit a tax return to HMRC in certain situations, such as earning income from trading or property. Accountants can clarify whether a return is required and ensure any liabilities, such as VAT, are handled correctly.

How can I find a charity accountant in Bolton?

You can use AccountingFirms.co.uk to browse and compare qualified accountants in Bolton. The directory lists verified professionals with charity sector experience, allowing you to review their services and specialisms. This makes it easier to select a firm that meets your charity's needs and budget.

What is an independent examination for a charity?

An independent examination is a lighter-touch review of charity accounts, required for charities below the audit threshold. It must be carried out by a qualified accountant or an independent examiner with the relevant skills. The examiner checks that accounts are prepared correctly and comply with charity regulations, providing assurance to trustees and donors.

Can an accountant help with gift aid claims?

Yes, accountants can assist charities with gift aid claims by ensuring donations are correctly recorded and that HMRC requirements are met. They can help maximise gift aid income, maintain accurate records, and submit claims accurately. This reduces the risk of errors or repayments and ensures the charity receives the tax relief it is entitled to.
