So if you're also trying to juggle business + family + everything in between, just know you're definitely not the only one.

Now… where did I put my tea? ☕😂

You’re an expert at what you do. That doesn’t mean you have to understand everything else too. 💚

You started your business because you’re good at what you do not because you wanted to become an accountant, bookkeeper, tax expert, marketer, IT technician and admin assistant all at once! 😂

Running a business can feel like a lot, especially when you’re doing it all yourself.

So if the financial side leaves you feeling a little overwhelmed, please don’t think you’re rubbish at it.

You might just need a little support. ☕💚

And that’s exactly what I’m here for friendly, straightforward advice, without the jargon or judgement.

You focus on what you’re brilliant at. Let me help with the rest.

Be honest how well do you REALLY know your business numbers? 👀

Give yourself a score from 1–5 for how confident you are with each:

💷 Your monthly profit
🧾 Your tax liability
💰 Your cash flow
📊 Your break-even figure
💸 What you actually pay yourself

1 = “I have absolutely no idea” 😂
5 = “I know my numbers inside out!”

Add your score up and drop it in the comments 👇

And if your score is lower than you'd like, don't panic. Understanding your numbers doesn't have to be complicated sometimes you just need someone to explain them in plain English. 💚☕

Hello everyone 👋

I’m so proud to introduce myself as the owner behind Creative Accountancy. 💚

With over a decade of experience working within accountancy practices, and being AAT regulated, I bring plenty of knowledge and experience to every client I work with.

But Creative Accountancy isn’t just about numbers, spreadsheets and tax returns.

Being self-employed myself means I understand the reality of running a business. The highs, the challenges, the “am I actually doing this right?” moments, and everything in between.

I’m also a mum and partner, so I know first hand that running a business has to fit around real life. In fact, with this being the last year before my daughter starts compulsory education, it’s made me realise just how much I genuinely love being self-employed and the flexibility it brings.

And if I’m being completely honest, I’m probably fuelled by tea, biscuits and a genuine desire to help people. ☕🍪😂

My approach is simple: friendly, straightforward advice without all the confusing accountancy jargon.

I want my clients to feel comfortable asking questions, understand what’s happening with their finances, and know that there’s someone in their corner who genuinely wants to help.

So, whether you’re just starting out, feeling overwhelmed by your bookkeeping, or simply want a friendly accountant who gets it, I’d love to hear from you.

It is time to separate your personal bank account to business bank account.

When a solopreneur uses the same bank account for business and personal spending, bookkeeping becomes much harder than it needs to be.

For example, imagine a client has 30 transactions in their account. Some are business software subscriptions, some are groceries, some are client payments, and others are personal shopping.

The bookkeeper now has to work out:

Which transactions relate to the business?

Which are personal?

Was that £80 payment a business expense or a personal purchase?

Was that incoming payment from a customer or a transfer from a personal account?

Are there expenses that have been missed because they were mixed in with personal spending?

This creates more work, more room for mistakes, and a less accurate picture of the business.

It also makes profitability much clearer
One of the biggest benefits of separating finances is that you can actually see how the business is performing.

Let's say a solopreneur has:

£5,000 business income
£1,500 business expenses
£3,500 profit

If personal spending is mixed into the same account, they might look at their bank balance and think:

“Where has all my money gone? I made £5,000 this month!”

But personal spending isn't a business expense. If they spent £1,000 on groceries, shopping and personal bills, that money leaving the account doesn't mean the business made less profit.

Keeping things separate means they can clearly distinguish:

Business money → income, expenses, profit and tax
Personal money → mortgage/rent, groceries, shopping, holidays, etc.

If your struggling to keep on top of your book keeping, that is exactly how I can help you.

Last week I had the pleasure of attending the Parkinson’s Moveable Feast in Norwich 💙

I was kindly invited as a guest of Cozens-Hardy LLP, who sponsor this fantastic event, all while raising money for such a great cause.

The evening involved enjoying three courses across three different restaurants in Norwich city centre, moving on to a new venue for each course. Such a brilliant idea and a really fun way to experience some of Norwich’s amazing restaurants!

There were plenty of laughs, some lovely people, a few drinks along the way 🥂 and, of course, plenty of steps getting from one course to the next!

Such an amazing evening for a very worthwhile cause. A huge thank you to Cozens-Hardy for inviting me along. I had a fantastic time! 💙

If you've heard about Making Tax Digital and thought "that's not me yet" you might be right, but not for long.

Here's the breakdown:

✅ £50,000+ income — Already mandatory as of this tax year (2026/27)
⏳ £30,000–£50,000 income — Your turn comes April 2027, based on your 2025/26 tax return

From April 2027, if you're a sole trader or landlord in this bracket, you'll need to:
📱 Keep digital records using approved software
📊 Submit quarterly updates to HMRC (instead of one annual return)
✅ File a final digital declaration at year end

The good news? You've still got time to prepare and getting set up early means no last-minute stress when it becomes compulsory.

📞 Not sure which bracket you fall into, or want help getting MTD ready before you have to? Get in touch and I'll talk you through it.

The best part of being my own boss? Not having to ask permission to take a day off 🙌

When I went self-employed, this was one of the biggest reasons why.

No booking annual leave months in advance. No awkward "can I possibly take Friday off" emails. No guilt trips.

If I want a random Tuesday off, I take a random Tuesday off. That's the deal I made with myself when I started this business and it's one of the best decisions I've ever made.

Being self-employed isn't always easy, but freedom like that? Worth every bit of the hard work. ☀️

If you're thinking about going self-employed and want to chat about what that actually looks like (finances included), give me a shout I've been there. 😊
