Sole Traders - Horner Downey & Co.

Sole Traders

Even sole traders can benefit from an accounting partner
to save them time and money

Choosing an accountancy partner that can be helpful and reliable makes all the difference.

Sole traders have to wear many hats, but your accountancy role is too important not to get 100% right. Delegate it to an accountancy partner and you will no longer have to worry about missing deadlines, incorrectly calculating your tax bill or losing out on the many tax advantages available to you. We can even organise your bookkeeping as well as your self-assessment and any other financial reports you require.

Our Sole Trader Accounting Services

From helping you get set up as a sole trader and requesting your UTR from HRMC to organising bookkeeping and self-assessment, we will ensure you have everything covered to begin trading confidently. If required, we can prepare financial reports with forecasting for funding or grant applications.

Additional accounting services we can offer sole traders are: bookkeeping, account management, self-assessment, business plans and forecasting and free advice.

Account Management

We manage your accounts, keeping in touch with you while we prepare your reports, giving you peace of mind.

What our clients say...

“We at Signs 3000 Ltd are very impressed with the professionalism and helpfulness of all at Horner Downey. We have been with them for 10 years now and have had many tax and other queries that have been resolved and answered by the accountants. Horner Downey do our payroll, Yearly accounts & VAT, which Mark personally comes out to assist with. I would willingly recommend them to any business large or small.”

Karen Moreton

“We have been using the services of Horner Downey since 1994 when our annual turnover was less than £20,000. Since then we have steadily grown with our current turnover being in excess of £3 million and rising.

Over the years we have been approached by many accountancy firms looking to attract our custom. None have been able to match the rates Horner Downey offer, and, although we have never moved I sincerely doubt any would match the service. We look forward to many more years to come…”
