Whilst the charity sector has historically relied upon volunteers and unpaid trustees, the industry is becoming more entrepreneurial without losing its primary purpose of serving a community or social group.
Moore and Smalley’s experience in advising charities and not-for-profit organisations is extensive. This sector is a substantial part of our business and our specialist team advises some of the best known organisations in the region. We currently act for over 120 registered charities from Lancashire and Cumbria, with a combined annual income in excess of £71.5m p.a. putting us amongst the top specialist charity auditors in the UK.
With charities subject to distinct legal requirements, accounting rules and taxation statutes, the demand for an expert team which understands the precise requirements of this sector is high. Some of our clients within this sector have been with Moore and Smalley for over 50 years - an amazing feat which cements our reputation and expertise in this field. We are also able to offer 'tried and tested' advice to trustees, as a number of our charity team are themselves trustees of registered charities.
