Frequently asked questions
What does an accountant for charities do?
An accountant for charities prepares annual accounts in line with the Charities SORP, manages fund accounting, submits annual returns and advises on Gift Aid and VAT. They help trustees meet legal duties, maintain transparent records and file with the Charity Commission and HMRC on time, ensuring the organisation remains compliant and well governed.
Why should a charity use an ACCA or ICAEW qualified accountant?
ACCA and ICAEW members are regulated and trained to high professional standards. They understand charity-specific reporting, HMRC requirements and tax reliefs. Their expertise reduces the risk of errors in annual accounts, Gift Aid claims and tax returns, giving trustees confidence that their financial reporting is accurate and compliant.
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 for trading income, property income or other non-charitable activities. An accountant can assess whether a return is required and prepare it correctly, avoiding penalties and ensuring HMRC compliance.
How much does a charity accountant cost?
Fees vary depending on the charity's size, income and complexity. Smaller charities may pay a few hundred pounds for annual accounts, whilst larger organisations with trading subsidiaries and payroll face higher costs. Comparing providers through a directory helps trustees find competitive quotes suited to their budget and requirements.
Can an accountant help with Gift Aid claims?
Yes. Accountants can review donation records, ensure valid declarations are in place and prepare Gift Aid claims for HMRC. They can also advise on Gift Aid Small Donations Scheme claims and help maximise eligible income, improving cash flow whilst keeping records accurate and audit-ready for trustees and regulators.
What records should a charity keep for its accountant?
Charities should retain receipts, invoices, bank statements, donation records, Gift Aid declarations, payroll data and grant documentation. Keeping organised records throughout the year allows an accountant to prepare accurate accounts, complete tax returns and support Self Assessment where needed, reducing delays and additional costs at year end.
