Not-For-Profit

At a time when the demand for the services of charities and not-for-profit organisations is at an all time high, competition for the donations and support of benefactors has never been more intense. As a new government attempts to re-balance the UK economy with major financial cuts in grant funding, we recognise the need to optimise your business processes and revenue management.

At David Allen we are proud to be involved with Carlisle Youth Zone, a local charity that creates safe environments for children in Carlisle and we understand the value the not-for-profit sector brings to our community and the challenges it faces in terms of balancing complex legislation, cultural ethos and effective financial administration. Our not-for-profit Business Development Specialists provide effective planning, inspirational ideas and practical support to help you help those in need. We provide particular expertise in:

• Preparation of management and statutory accounts
• Advice on accounting systems and the Charities SORP
• VAT advice which can be complex in the case of charities
• Gift aid claims and tax effective giving
• Dealing with the Charity Commission and the Annual Return
• Assistance with grant applications
• Preparation of payroll

To optimise the performance management of your organisation and the value it brings to its beneficiaries contact Robert Nordon.
