Frequently asked questions
What does a charity accountant do for a not-for-profit organisation?
A charity accountant prepares annual accounts in line with the Charities SORP, manages Gift Aid claims, advises on VAT and Corporation Tax exemptions, and supports independent examinations or audits. They also help trustees meet HMRC reporting deadlines and maintain accurate records for fund accounting, ensuring transparency and compliance with charity regulations.
Why should a charity choose an ACCA or ICAEW qualified accountant?
ACCA and ICAEW qualified accountants are regulated and recognised professionals with rigorous training in financial reporting, tax, and audit. Their expertise ensures charity accounts meet legal and HMRC requirements, that tax reliefs are correctly applied, and that trustees receive reliable advice on governance and financial controls, reducing risk and strengthening donor confidence.
How can an accountant help with Gift Aid and HMRC claims?
An accountant ensures Gift Aid claims are accurate, that donor records meet HMRC requirements, and that claims are submitted on time. They can also advise on Gift Aid Small Donations Scheme claims, review eligibility, and help charities maximise income whilst avoiding errors that could trigger HMRC enquiries or repayment demands.
Do charities need an independent examination or a full audit?
Whether a charity needs an independent examination or a full audit depends on its gross income, total assets, and governing document. An accountant can assess the thresholds, confirm which level of scrutiny applies, and carry out the work in line with Charity Commission requirements, ensuring the charity meets its legal obligations.
What tax reliefs are available to charities, and how are they claimed?
Charities can benefit from reliefs including exemption from Corporation Tax on most income, VAT reliefs on certain purchases, and business rates relief. Claims and compliance depend on accurate record-keeping and correct reporting to HMRC. An accountant ensures reliefs are claimed properly and that any taxable activities are handled correctly.
