Frequently asked questions
What does an accountant for charities do?
An accountant for charities manages financial reporting, fund accounting, independent examinations and tax compliance. They prepare annual accounts, advise on Gift Aid, VAT and Corporation Tax exemptions, and help trustees meet their legal duties. They also support budgeting, reserves policies and strategic planning, ensuring charities remain transparent and financially sustainable whilst focusing on their charitable objectives.
Why should a charity use an ACCA or ICAEW qualified accountant?
ACCA and ICAEW qualified accountants are regulated and trained to high professional standards. They understand charity-specific regulations, HMRC requirements and reporting frameworks. Their expertise helps charities avoid penalties, claim tax reliefs correctly and maintain robust internal controls. Engaging a qualified professional also reassures donors and beneficiaries that finances are managed responsibly and transparently.
How can an accountant help with HMRC and tax returns?
An accountant ensures charities meet HMRC obligations, including Corporation Tax exemptions, VAT registration and Gift Aid claims. They prepare and file tax returns accurately, advise on Self Assessment for trustees where applicable, and handle correspondence with HMRC. This reduces the risk of errors, penalties and unexpected tax liabilities, allowing trustees to focus on running the charity.
What is the difference between an independent examination and an audit?
An independent examination is a lighter-touch review required for smaller charities, whilst an audit is a more detailed statutory inspection for larger organisations. Both provide assurance on financial statements. An accountant assesses which applies based on income and governing documents, then carries out the appropriate work to ensure compliance and transparency.

Can an accountant help with Gift Aid and VAT for charities?
Yes. Accountants help charities register for Gift Aid, claim repayments correctly and maintain the required records. They also advise on VAT registration, recovery and exemptions, ensuring compliance with HMRC rules. This maximises income and reduces risk, allowing charities to direct more funds towards their charitable activities.
