Charities & CICs

Financial support for charities and CICs that goes beyond the year end.

We help charities and CICs manage bookkeeping, reporting, cash flow and financial obligations, and become better prepared for funding opportunities and growth.

Three layers of support

Built around the organisation.

01Foundations

Keep the financial foundations right

Accurate records and reliable reporting, so trustees, directors and funders can rely on the numbers.

Bookkeeping, annual accounts, payroll, VAT and Charity Commission reporting handled properly and on time.

02Insight

Know where the organisation stands

A current view of cash, commitments, funding and project performance throughout the year, not just at year end.

Management reporting, cash flow, budgets, grant tracking, restricted funds and trustee reporting.

03Funding

Be ready when funding opportunities appear

Strong budgets, forecasts and financial information that funders need to see before they commit.

Funding readiness, project costing, financial projections and grant application support.

Support beyond the accounts

Where specialist support is needed, such as bid writing, grant applications or wider funding strategy, we can connect clients with trusted people in our network. We get the financial foundation ready; the specialist support is accessed where appropriate, not delivered by us directly.

Why this matters

A funder may care about the mission, but they also need confidence that the organisation can manage resources properly. Clear budgets, sensible forecasts, accurate records and reliable reporting all strengthen the financial side of an application. We help make sure the financial foundation is ready before specialist bid or grant support is brought in.
