We have a dedicated not-for-profit team, assisting clients from a variety of backgrounds to navigate their regulatory compliance, including charity commission filings and HMRC claims, while providing tailored advice.
Our team has a thorough understanding of the latest SORP (Statement of Recommended Practices) requirements, and we have recently invested heavily in both resources and training to ensure that our clients receive the latest guidance.
