Focus on Your Business.

We’ll Handle the Numbers.

You’ve got a business to run — and that’s more than enough already. But HMRC, deadlines and red tape don’t wait, even when you’re already flat out.

So at Bowes Brooks we take the pressure off.. everything’s in one place, handled by a reliable team who get it and speak a language you understand. 

All for a fair and fixed fee so you don’t get any surprise bills

If you’re like most of our clients before they found us, you might be:
• Staying up late trying to make the books balance

• Unsure what’s coming in, what’s going out, or what you can afford

• Hit with VAT, tax or payroll surprises you didn’t see coming

• Getting vague advice from an accountant who shows up once a year (normally with a tax bill!)

• Feeling stuck in a tangle of apps, receipts and responsibilities

• Too busy to even ask for help — or unsure where to start

 

Here’s how we help:

• Bookkeeping done consistently, not at the last minute

• Real-time financials so you know where you stand

• Tax and compliance sorted, no nasty surprises

• Cash flow insights so you can plan ahead, not panic later

• Clear, proactive advice — the kind that actually helps

• Support from real people who care about your business

We also do all of the other boring stuff so you can get your evenings and weekends back to spend time with family and doing the things you enjoy

STILL NOT SURE?

Questions You Might Be Asking Yourself…

I’m overwhelmed trying to keep up with bookkeeping. Can you take this off my plate?

Absolutely. We handle your bookkeeping reliably and on time, so you don’t have to spend evenings wrestling with spreadsheets or receipts.

How can I get clearer on my numbers so I can make smarter decisions?

We provide real-time financial reports and explain what they mean, no jargon, just clarity — so you always know where your business stands.

What if I can’t predict my cash flow and get caught short on bills?

We help you monitor cash flow regularly, so surprises don’t sneak up on you. Planning ahead becomes much easier.

I worry about HMRC deadlines and investigations. Can you keep me compliant?

Yes. We make sure your returns are filed on time, and we support you through any HMRC questions or checks — giving you peace of mind.

I’m tired of juggling multiple advisors and systems. Can I have everything under one roof?

That’s exactly what we offer: bookkeeping, accounts, payroll, tax advice — all from one trusted team who actually talks to each other.

I don’t know what I’m missing — am I profitable? Are my prices right?

We provide regular insights and advice tailored to your business so you know what’s working, what isn’t, and how to improve profitability.

My accountant only contacts me at year-end. Can you be more proactive?

Definitely. We work with you year-round, offering ongoing advice and support — not just last-minute surprises.

I get financial reports but no context or help understanding them. Will you explain?

Always. We believe in clear communication and take the time to walk you through your numbers, helping you understand and act on them.

I’m worried my business is too small to get proper support. Is that true?

Not at all. We specialise in owner-managed businesses of all sizes and tailor our service to fit your stage and needs.

I’ve heard software is complicated and confusing. Will you help me set it up?

Yes — we guide you on the right software, help with setup, and provide ongoing support so it works for you, not against you.

Isn't is a hassle to change accountants?

Spoiler alert: it’s not. We make switching simple — we’ll manage the handover, liase with your previous accountant and handle everything behind the scenes to keep things running smoothly. No stress or drama for you
