About Us...

Cornwall Bookkeeping & Accountancy Services is owned by Gareth Bailey who is the main point of contact for all your enquiries.
Gareth has worked in accountancy since 2004 and in practice since 2007 after completing his Professional Diploma in Accounting with the Association of Accounting Technicians.
In his spare time he enjoys spending time with his family and can be found down the local on a Friday night "networking" and undertaking his weekly sporting activities (pool and darts!) to keep in shape :)
We are fellow members of the Association of Accounting Technicians which shows we have senior experience, advanced expertise and sustained professionalism. We hold a practicing licence and are regulated by the AAT so you can guarantee a high standard of work from us.

Dext
We are fully trained in Dext Prepare (formerly Receipt Bank) which is software that helps capture all your invoices and receipts electronically, removing the need to store years worth of paperwork. We can help set up your account and provide training if necessary, to ensure data in captured in the most efficient and accurate way.

Paperless
We are proud to be an almost 100% paperless office (except for the occasional letter we need to post to HMRC when there is no online option!). All our work is stored securely in the cloud and using the power of Xero and Dext we urge our clients to become as paperless as possible. Nobody likes paperwork or having to store paper copies of documents for 7 years so why not make use of the technology?
All your accounts and tax returns will be sent to you over a portal for electronically signing (don't worry, it's a simple system to use even if you are not confident with using computers) which you can then download and store on your computer.
