CFW Chartered Accountants & Business Advisers

CFW is a modern, friendly, approachable firm of Chartered Accountants and Business Advisers. CFW Chartered Accountants assist in many business start-ups.

Our new offices are located on the A43 and are easily accessible from Kettering and Corby. CFW are business advisors and not just Accountants and recognise that clients require much more than number crunching and compliance work. The ever increasing burden of new regulations can be reduced by using our additional payroll, book-keeping and compliance services. We offer a wide range of services for

small to medium sized family businesses. This part of the business cycle can be very difficult and stressful for new clients and we provide constant assistance and back-up to allow the business to develop. All aspects of the new business are covered from liaising with banks and financiers to covering all statutory and revenue compliance work. CFW’s turnaround of work is geared to clients needs. Substantial investment in I.T. permits not only accurate and professional accounts to be provided to clients, but assists us in remaining cost effective to our clients. We have been established for over 25 years and we pride ourselves on providing both a professional and personal service to deliver the right solutions for your business. CFW has five partners and over 15 staff with many years experience in a wide range of business sectors and also has specialist knowledge in many areas. The growing number of women in business has not been overlooked by us and we appreciate that 50% of our potential clients are women. Having a female partner within our team gives us an advantage in this respect and we believe that this reflects the needs of our customers. We like to think of ourselves as client led and aim to provide the services that our clients want and not what we think they need. With a team of 8 qualified and experienced Accountants we can assist with any of your accountancy needs. Our CFW team looks forward to welcoming new clients and to continuing to work with our existing clients whom we highly value, and whom we are confident will continue to recommend our services. Whatever your Accountancy needs, a call to CFW Chartered Accountants in Kettering will provide the answer.

Companies House accounts filing is changing from April 2028 – is your business prepared?

The Government has confirmed significant changes to the way UK companies prepare and file their annual accounts with Companies House from 1 April 2028. These reforms will affect businesses of all sizes, particularly small companies and micro-entities.

Some of the key changes include:
✔ Mandatory software-only filing
✔ New profit & loss filing requirements for small companies
✔ The end of abridged accounts
✔ Stronger audit exemption statements

Although the changes are still some time away, understanding what's coming now can help you plan ahead and avoid any last-minute surprises.

At CFW, we're already helping clients prepare for these changes and ensuring they'll be ready well before the new rules come into force.

Read our latest blog to find out what the reforms mean for your business.

Are you getting the support your business really needs?

A mid-year review is a useful opportunity to consider whether your current accountancy arrangements are supporting your business effectively.

Good accountancy support should go beyond compliance. It should provide clear advice, identify planning opportunities, support decision-making and give you confidence that your tax and financial affairs are being managed properly.

At CFW Accountants in Kettering, we provide bespoke, practical support to businesses and individuals who want an engaged relationship with their accountant.
If your current arrangements are not giving you the level of advice, responsiveness or insight you need, it may be time to explore your options.

If you would like to review your current position, please get in touch for a no-obligation conversation.

HMRC is consulting on a new criminal offence for reckless, untrue tax statements. What could it mean for taxpayers and businesses?

The Government is proposing a new criminal offence for making reckless untrue statements or declarations relating to direct taxes, such as Income Tax and Corporation Tax. The aim is to align the rules with those already in place for VAT and other indirect taxes, giving prosecutors an alternative charge where dishonesty cannot be proven but reckless behaviour is evident.

Importantly, this proposal is not aimed at genuine mistakes. Instead, it targets situations where individuals or businesses act recklessly when providing information to HMRC.

If introduced, the new offence could carry:
✔ A custodial sentence of up to two years
✔ An unlimited fine
✔ Greater consistency across the UK tax system

Our latest news article explains the proposals, who they could affect and what they may mean for taxpayers, business owners and advisers.
