Bookkeeping in Brighton
Compliant and Stress-Free Financial Services from Experienced Accountants in Brighton, Hove and the Surrounding Areas
Brywel Associates provides professional bookkeeping services for individuals, sole traders, landlords, and businesses in Brighton, Hove and beyond. Our AAT-qualified accountants and bookkeepers bring over 30 years of combined experience, offering a reliable, accurate and fully compliant service tailored to your business needs.
Bookkeeping is the process of recording, organising, and maintaining all your financial transactions—everything from invoices and receipts to bank statements and expenses. It’s the foundation of your financial reporting, VAT returns, tax returns, and cash flow management. Done right, it gives you total visibility over your income, outgoings, and profitability. Done wrong, and you risk errors, compliance issues, or even HMRC penalties.
We ensure your records are always accurate, up to date, and fully aligned with current financial regulations so you can focus on what matters: running your business.


Why Bookkeeping Matters
Many small businesses and sole traders start managing their own books, but as workloads grow, so does the potential for mistakes. Inaccurate records can lead to misinformed decisions, missed tax deductions, and late payments.
Our services help you:
- Stay compliant with HMRC and Making Tax Digital (MTD) rules
- Understand your cash flow in real time
- Plan ahead with confidence
- Reduce your stress around tax deadlines
- Avoid fines due to missed or incorrect submissions
With Brywel Associates, you’re not just ticking boxes—you’re gaining clarity, control, and peace of mind.

Do I really need a bookkeeper if I already use Xero or QuickBooks?
Yes! Software is great for recording data, but mistakes in inputting or reconciliation can still happen. A qualified bookkeeper ensures that everything is correct, compliant, and complete.

Absolutely. Many clients come to us with a backlog, whether it’s a few months or a few years. We’ll work quickly and efficiently to get you caught up. We’re also happy to help with financial advice and cash flow management.

We’re happy to work however suits you. We accept records via email or post and offer a local collection service.

Yes. All our accountants are fully qualified (AAT, IPA, or IFA), CPD-compliant, and covered by professional indemnity insurance.
Do you charge a fixed price for bookkeeping?
