Charities and not-for-profit organisations operate under strict rules and regulatory requirements while focusing on delivering services and support to their communities. Trustees, managers, and staff face administrative pressures, reporting obligations, and tax considerations that require careful management. Yorkshire Tax Accountants provides specialist accounting and tax support tailored to the charity sector, helping organisations operate efficiently, remain compliant, and reduce administrative burden.
Our qualified accountants and tax advisors understand the sector’s specific challenges, including managing donations, grants, restricted funds, and reporting obligations. We work closely with charity teams to provide structured accounting solutions that reflect real working conditions. The goal is simple: allow organisations to focus on their charitable objectives while ensuring compliance with all requirements.
Charities receive income from multiple sources, including donations, gift aid, grants, and fundraising revenue. Each type of income may have specific reporting requirements, and inaccurate or late reporting can create regulatory or compliance risks. Some charities also manage projects with restricted funding, requiring clear record-keeping to ensure funds are used appropriately.
Our tax advisors review donation structures, grant usage, and expense allocations to ensure records are accurate, organised, and compliant with HMRC and Charity Commission rules. We help trustees understand their responsibilities, minimise administrative strain, and maintain confidence in the accuracy of reporting. This approach supports effective decision-making and operational efficiency.
Maintaining clear and organised records is essential for charities. We provide ongoing accounting services, including bookkeeping, preparation of annual reports, statutory accounts, and compliance checks.
For charities with employees or volunteers, we efficiently manage payroll and PAYE obligations. Our qualified accountants ensure all reporting reflects actual income and allowable costs, providing trustees with clarity and confidence in their records.
While charities do not pay tax on most income, compliance and reporting obligations are complex. Our tax advisors assist with gift aid claims, VAT on charitable activities, and other statutory requirements.
We ensure that reporting and accounting arrangements are structured appropriately, providing clarity for trustees and management teams. Our guidance helps organisations maintain compliance while focusing on their charitable objectives.
