Bookkeeping in St Leonards and St Ives

Personal help for a residential community

St Leonards and St Ives is largely residential, bordered by heathland, forestry and Avon Heath Country Park. Many of the businesses here are small and home-based, or run by people who have moved to the area and brought their work with them. There are also larger employers, including care homes and hospitality businesses, where payroll is a big part of the job.

Bookkeeping for landlords

Landlords in the area often have portfolios that have grown over time – a couple of flats in Bournemouth, a house in Ringwood, perhaps a holiday let. Keeping separate, accurate records for each property makes your tax return easier and your rental profits clearer. It’s also essential for Making Tax Digital for Income Tax, which applies to landlords with gross rents over £50,000 now and over £30,000 from April 2027.

Payroll for care and hospitality

Payroll for care and hospitality is rarely simple: shift patterns, holiday pay, statutory sick pay, pension contributions and staff who come and go. I run payroll accurately and on time so your team is paid correctly and HMRC is kept informed.

Easy to reach

Being based just up the road in Verwood means I’m on hand for a face-to-face meeting when you need one. Everything else can be handled by phone, email or video call.
