What I handle on your behalf
From annual accounts to monthly bookkeeping, I cover the full picture for sole traders, limited companies and contractors around Lichfield.
Accounts, Tax Returns and Self Assessment
I prepare and file your year-end accounts and tax returns, whether you are a sole trader or a limited company. Self assessment returns are handled accurately and on time, with your tax liability explained in plain English before anything is submitted. You will never miss a deadline.
Sole traders and limited companiesVAT Returns and Making Tax Digital
I manage your VAT returns and submit them under Making Tax Digital using compatible software. MTD for Income Tax starts in 2026 for those earning over 50,000 pounds, meaning quarterly reporting replaces the single annual return. I set you up correctly now so there are no surprises later.
MTD compliantBookkeeping and Cloud Accounting
I keep your records clean throughout the year using QuickBooks, FreeAgent, Xero or Sage, depending on what suits your business. Regular bookkeeping means your year-end is straightforward and your numbers are always up to date. No chasing receipts at the last minute.

A personal accountant who knows your file and picks up the phone is a different experience from a firm that passes you around.
You deal with me, not a rota of staff
Every client at Anchor Accounts and Books is handled personally by me. There are no junior staff, no handoffs and no explaining yourself twice. When you have a question, I answer it, because I already know your situation.
Fixed fees with no hidden charges
You know exactly what you pay before we start. Fixed fees mean no hourly billing surprises and no invoice that arrives larger than you expected. It makes budgeting straightforward and removes one more thing to worry about.
Same-day responses as standard
If you send me a message, you hear back the same day. That matters when HMRC sends you a letter you do not understand, or when a deadline is closer than you realised. Quick access to a qualified accountant saves money and reduces stress.
How it works
Getting started takes one conversation, and I keep the whole process straightforward from there.
Book a free call
You book a free introductory call at /contact. There is no obligation and no sales pitch. I ask about your situation, you ask whatever you need to, and we work out together whether I am the right fit.
I review your current position
Once you come on board, I look at where your accounts stand today. If there is anything outstanding or untidy, I tell you plainly what it is and what it will take to fix it. No judgement, just clarity.
We set up your accounting properly
I get your bookkeeping, cloud software and reporting set up in a way that works for your business. Whether you are on QuickBooks, FreeAgent, Xero or Sage, I handle the setup and keep it running throughout the year.
I handle everything from here
Deadlines are tracked, returns are filed on time and your tax position is reviewed regularly. You get direct access to me whenever you need it, and a same-day response whenever you reach out.
