A firm built withcharities at its heart.
At NFP in Focus we pride ourselves on providing help and guidance alongside the compliance tasks — bringing financial clarity to organisations that are making a difference.
“Too often, charities get an accounts service that meets the minimum and little else. I wanted to build a firm with charities at its heart — one that goes beyond the compliance minimum.”
Jon Phillmore FCCA DChA specialised in the sector in 2008, and has since seen first-hand how charities can struggle with their finances — not because the people running them aren't capable, but because the regulatory and reporting landscape is genuinely complex, and the support available doesn't always match the need.
Too often, charities get an accounts preparation service that meets the minimum requirement and little else — no financial insight or support that would help an organisation not just meet its obligations, but plan and grow.
NFP in Focus was built to go beyond the compliance minimum. A firm which explains things clearly, picks up the phone, supports trustees and senior management, and brings the same quality of financial thinking that larger organisations enjoy to charities of every size.
These are not words on a wall
They are the principles that shape every client relationship, every piece of work, every conversation.
Approachable above all
We pick up the phone, explain things plainly, and never hide behind jargon. Finance should feel like a conversation, not an exam.
Sector-focused
Charities and not-for-profits are all we do. SORP, fund accounting and Commission filings are our everyday language, not an occasional add-on.
Clarity of understanding
We make sure trustees and senior staff genuinely understand their numbers, so decisions are made with confidence, not guesswork.
Genuinely responsive
A senior contact who knows your organisation and replies promptly. No ticket queues, no being passed around.
Forward looking
We keep you ahead of issues rather than behind them, spotting risks and opportunities before they become urgent.
Long-term relationships
We invest in understanding your mission and stay with you as it grows. This is a partnership, not a transaction.
