UK Start-ups and small businesses to benefit as Wilkins Kennedy's new small business unit takes off
Top 25 UK chartered accountancy firm Wilkins Kennedy Chartered Accountants and Business Advisers has launched a brand new “Small Business Unit”; a team of professional experts offering accountancy and related services specifically tailored to encourage and benefit start-ups and small businesses with turnovers up to £2 million in the South of England.
Heading up the new initiative is company director and gliding enthusiast Alison Dodsworth, from the Wilkins Kennedy Guildford office, who officially launched the Small Business Unit at a networking event with colleagues at the Shenington Gliding Club in Banbury.

Alison Dodsworth, Director at Wilkins Kennedy, comments: “Start-ups and small businesses can benefit greatly from our specialist advice and wide range of outsourced services including: management accounts, audit, bookkeeping, credit control, payroll and HR.”
“We launched the Small Business Unit as we felt it could bridge a gap for start-ups and small businesses who usually are forced to choose between a small accountancy firm for the short term, with fewer available resources, or a larger, more expensive accountancy firm. The unit offers start-ups and small businesses a dedicated, personalised service from an audit-registered top 25 UK chartered accountancy firm, which will allow the business to grow profitably under our guidance, whilst providing access to a network of legal and banking professionals and our own full extended range of services, including outsource professionals, audit, VAT and tax specialists.”
