Charities & Not-for-Profit

At Francis Clark we recognise that charities and not-for-profit organisations have very different requirements from other businesses.

Our dedicated team of experts fully understand the complex, ever-changing regulatory requirements of the not-for-profit sector.
 
We act for over 200 charities throughout the South West, both large and small, including schools and clubs. We also act for various other not-for-profit organisations including registered social landlords, industrial and provident societies and associations. In fact, many of our partners are charity trustees themselves, so we understand how important every penny is.
 
Our specialists use their detailed understanding of the requirements of the Charities Act, Charities SORP and other applicable legislation to ensure that your accounts are fully compliant and efficiently produced. The sheer bulk of the statutory accounts does not always aid comprehension, and we will also produce summary accounts which aim to provide a clearer picture of your results, as well as spending time interpreting the accounts for trustees and managers.
 
Not only can we ensure that your organisations tax requirement is kept to a minimum, but we can also help with audit and accountancy systems, advise on complex VAT requirements, advise on best practice, provide guidance on IT, applying for grants and in the event of financial problems, help with corporate recovery.
