Third Sector Accountancy Limited (Workers Co-op)

Who we are

We are a firm of Chartered Accountants and Registered Auditors offering accountancy services primarily to those with the not-for-profit and co-operative sector. We work with co-operatives, community interest companies, community benefit societies, and charities throughout the UK. Although our office is in Manchester, we have staff around the UK (and Germany) and run a paperless office. We are currently a team of twenty, able to offer a wealth of accounting, auditing and book-keeping experience and skills

Our Vision is of a democratic and socially just world with massively reduced economic inequality, in which all people, regardless of race, gender, religion or sexual orientation are treated with respect; in which war and the industries supporting it are a thing of the past; in which animals and the natural world are deemed to be valuable in themselves and are not just considered to be resources for humans. A world in which compassion, cooperation and autonomy are the guiding principles, rather than greed and competition.

Our role is to focus our work on supporting organisations which:

• are social enterprises, charities or co-operatives
• work to reduce social inequalities
• support migrants
• assist the destitute
• provide social housing
• campaign or educate to support veganism and animal rights
• protect the environment or address climate change
• encourage and promote participation in the arts and creativity
• campaign for peace and conflict resolution, or against the arms trade
• empower underprivileged and disempowered groups
• campaign against and/or address discrimination based on race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, class or religion
• support LGBTQIA+ people
• support people affected by sexual exploitation
• provide spiritual or emotional support
• promote the co-operative sector
