Charity finance that demonstrates your impact.
We combine IFA-regulated accounts and independent examination with rigorous impact assessment — so every engagement evidences the difference you make, not just your compliance.
Most charity accountants stop at the balance sheet. We connect the money to the mission: one specialist practice, one integrated report that satisfies the Charity Commission and the people who fund you.
Why combined
Your accounts and your impact tell one story. We produce it together.
Every charity has to satisfy two audiences — the Charity Commission and its funders. Accountants serve the first. Impact consultants serve the second. We are the specialist practice that does both, in a single engagement, where the numbers and the difference they make reinforce each other.
Grounded in your real numbers
Impact evidenced against actual programme spend — not a disconnected survey. “You invested £X in this work, and here is the social value it created.”
Evidence funders ask for
Funders increasingly want outcomes, not just receipts. An integrated finance-and-impact report gives you credible evidence to put in front of them.
One provider, less cost
Buying accounts and impact separately means two firms, two invoices and two demands on trustee time. We deliver both, coherently, for less.
Regulated and rigorous
IFA-regulated practitioners, SORP FRS 102 accounts, and our AIAF impact framework aligned to the Social Value Act and the UN SDGs.
Our services
Two pillars, one integrated engagement
Regulated accounts and independent examination, and measured impact — produced together, so your finances and your mission tell one story. Take both, or just the part you need.
Regulated accounts and independent examination
Receipts and payments or accruals accounts to SORP FRS 102, and statutory independent examination under s.145 Charities Act 2011 — risk assessment, transaction sampling, client queries and a signed examiner’s report to Charity Commission General Directions.
AIAF impact reporting that funders trust
Annual impact assessment using our proprietary AIAF framework, aligned to the Social Value Act and the UN Sustainable Development Goals — evidenced against your actual finances to support trustee accountability, grant applications and public reporting.

How it works
Simple, transparent process
Get in touch
Tell us about your charity — income level, year end and what you need. We provide a clear, fixed-fee quote within one working day.
Engagement letter
Once agreed, we issue a formal engagement letter for trustee approval. Your responsibilities and ours are clearly set out.
Accounts, examination & impact
We prepare and examine your accounts to Charity Commission standards and assess your impact against your actual finances — raising queries with your team as we go.
Integrated report
You receive your signed examiner’s report and your impact assessment — ready for the Charity Commission and to demonstrate your impact to funders and stakeholders.
Our approach
“Every charity deserves finance that does more than tick a box — work that proves its worth to funders and its difference to the community.”
We built acct4impact because too many smaller charities carry a double burden — compliance for the regulator and evidence for their funders — with no one to join the two up. By combining IFA-regulated oversight with a purpose-built impact framework and technology, we deliver the quality larger organisations take for granted, at a price point that works for the whole sector.
