About
Practical Bookkeeping, built on real world experience.
After 25+ years running my own business, I know firsthand how challenging it can be to juggle finances, compliance, and day to day operations. That's why I launched this service: to give small business owners, freelancers, and sole traders the clarity and confidence they deserve when it comes to their books.
I bring a hands on, no nonsense approach to bookkeeping grounded in decades of managing my own accounts and payroll. Whether you're just starting out or scaling up, I'll help you stay organised, compliant, and financially informed
