What Is a Charity or Not-for-Profit Audit?
For charities and not-for-profits, transparency isn’t just good governance — it’s essential. A charity audit provides independent assurance that your finances are properly managed, compliant with Charity Commission or Companies House requirements, and aligned with your organisation’s objectives.
At BC&A, we carry out charity and not-for-profit audits with the same rigour as corporate ones — but with a deeper understanding of your sector, funding sources, and governance obligations.
We help trustees, boards, and managers see the full picture — and make decisions with confidence.
Why Charity or Not-for-Profit Audits Matter
An audit isn’t just about ticking off compliance boxes. It’s about trust. Our audits help you:
Demonstrate
Demonstrate transparency to funders, donors, and regulators
Strengthen

Ensure
