About Source247 Accounting
We're a Bolton-based accounting firm dedicated to taking the stress out of financial management for UK small businesses and sole traders.
Our Story
Source247 Accounting was founded with a simple belief: that every small business deserves the same quality of financial expertise as a large corporation — without the corporate price tag or the impersonal service.
Based in Bolton, we've spent over 15 years building relationships with local businesses, sole traders, and entrepreneurs across the North West. We understand the pressures of running a small business, and we're here to make sure your finances never become one of them.
From day-to-day bookkeeping to year-end accounts and tax planning, we handle every aspect of your financial administration — so you can focus on what you do best.
Over a decade and a half supporting UK small businesses with expert, personal financial management — from sole traders to established SMEs.
What We Stand For
Transparency
Fixed annual pricing with no hidden fees. You always know exactly what you're paying and what you're getting.
Reliability
Deadlines are non-negotiable. We file on time, every time — protecting you from HMRC penalties and late fees.
Personal Service
You'll always deal with a named accountant who knows your business, not a call centre or rotating support team.
Proactive Advice
We don't just record what's happened — we look ahead, flagging opportunities and risks before they become problems.
The Person Behind Your Accounts
When you work with Source247, you work directly with our founder — not a junior member of staff.
