Charities

Charity accounting is particularly difficult to get to grips with because of all the rules and regulations that go into it. But we’re well versed in the trials and tribulations, as well as all the different elements that go into making them a success. So, while you know your organisation, we know what makes charity accounting run smoothly and the processes needed to keep your finances running smoothly.

We’ll help you stay compliant with the Charities Act, Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) and other legislation so you can make sure you’re complying with the law and can spend your time doing what you do best – helping your beneficiaries.

“We have been supported by Waltons with accountancy and audit services since 1986. As good governance is so essential for a registered charity, it is vital that our Trustees can rely on the rigour and independence of the annual audit, to ensure that the organisation is well run and financially sound.”
