CIC accountants in Caerphilly for grant reports and CIC accounts
CIC accountants Caerphilly is what directors search for in the week a funder asks for a spend report. We write those reports, file the CIC accounts and the community interest report, and agree the fee before we start.
Most CICs are run by the people doing the work, not the books. The community interest report, the annual accounts and the funder’s next deadline often land in the same month. Tax investigation cover is included free for every client, so an HMRC enquiry costs you nothing extra.
In one lineSupreme Consultants is an AAT licensed accountancy practice in Cardiff Bay that prepares CIC accounts, the community interest report and funder spend reports for community interest companies in Caerphilly and across South Wales. The fee is fixed and agreed before work starts, and tax investigation cover is included free.

Answer with the buttons, no email needed.
Question 1 of 3
Does your accountant reply the same working day?
Do you know your fee for the year will not change?
If a funder asked for a spend report tomorrow, would your accountant write it?
That is a real gap, and it usually shows up the week a grant deadline lands. Start the check and Mudassir reads your answers and replies the same working day.
Start the checkYou are in a reasonable position on the compliance side. The reporting your funder wants is worth a conversation before the next deadline.
Start the checkYou are well served and there is no reason to move. Read the guides if you want a second view on CIC reporting.
Read the guidesWhat you get
The funder’s report on the day they ask
We write the quarterly and six-monthly spend, budget and forecast reports your funder wants. You forward it instead of building it.
CIC accounts and the CIC34 filed on time
Annual accounts and the community interest report go to Companies House on time, with restricted grant income shown properly.
Tax investigation cover included free
If HMRC opens an enquiry we deal with it and you pay us nothing extra. Every HMRC investigation we have handled, we have won.
What CIC directors tell us when they ring
These are the three things we hear most from community interest companies in Caerphilly.
“Our funder wants a quarterly spend report by Friday and nobody here can produce it.”
A director loses a weekend to a spreadsheet, and the next bid goes in with figures nobody has checked.
“We need the accounts early for the next grant deadline and our accountant has not replied.”
The bid goes in without accounts, or it does not go in at all.
“I am not sure our restricted grant income is shown correctly in the accounts.”
A funder reads the accounts before they read the bid, and questions about restricted funds are hard to answer late.
What changes once we take it on
We map every deadline for the year: the CIC accounts, the community interest report and each funder report date. Reports are written by us and sent to you to check. You ring us when a funder changes the format, and the call costs nothing.
How this differs from a general accountant
Plenty of good accountants file accounts. Few of them write what funders ask for.
A general accountant doing your CIC accounts
Accounts filed, community interest report treated as an afterthought
Funder reports are your job
Calls and extra reports billed as they come
Investigation cover sold as an add-on
With Supreme Consultants
CIC accounts and the community interest report filed together
Quarterly and six-monthly spend, budget and forecast reports written by us
A fixed fee agreed in writing, calls never charged
Tax investigation cover included free for every client
Eight questions about your CIC set-up
Answer these before your next funder deadline.
Do you know the date your community interest report is due?
It is filed with the annual accounts and funders do read it.
Can you produce a spend report against budget this week?
Most funders ask quarterly and give little notice.
Is restricted grant income shown separately in your accounts?
Funders check this before they fund you again.
Do you have a forecast you could send a funder today?
Bids usually ask for one alongside the spend report.
Are your bank records reconciled to the end of last month?
Reports written from unreconciled records get queried.
Do you know your accountancy fee for the whole year?
Ours is agreed in writing before any work starts.
Would your accountant deal with an HMRC enquiry at no extra cost?
Tax investigation cover is included free for every client of ours.
Are your directors paid in a way that has been checked?
We go through pay and bookkeeping with you in the first ninety days.

Reviews from clients
Thank you Mud, your help and support with my VAT return is greatly appreciated. Always a prompt response and my difficult VAT return was quickly submitted and resolved. Would definitely recommend.
I just want to say a big thank you to Mudassir for all the advice, guidance and help he has provided whilst dealing with my accounts and tax returns. From start to finish the service has been excellent and professional. Unlike other accountancy firms they provide a friendly personalised service, I was very clear on the process and was even provided with additional guidance where needed. Highly recommended!
Friendly, nice 👌 , helpful and great all around
Difficult to describe as there are too many words that can be expressed for a wonderful accountant and their firm.
Definitely 🔝 and highly recommended in Wales 🏴 and throughout the UK for Accountancy and Tax Services

Getting started
Four steps from your first answer to knowing where your CIC stands.
- Before you join
Your fee agreed in writing
You answer a few questions on the site. Mudassir reads them and replies the same working day. If we are a fit, we agree your fixed fee before any work starts.
- Week one
Records moved without the call
We complete your ID checks and write to your current accountant for your records. HMRC and Companies House authorise us as your agent.
- First month
Every deadline on one list
We go through past accounts, returns and HMRC records. We map the CIC accounts, the community interest report and each funder report date for the year ahead.
- By ninety days
Reporting running to a timetable
We sit down with you on how the directors are paid and on your bookkeeping set-up. You know what is coming up and who to call.
Who we are not right for
We do not work with CIS construction subcontractors.
We do not prepare charity accounts.
We do not take on businesses already late in an HMRC investigation.
If you are outside those three, start the check and Mudassir replies the same working day.
CIC accountants Caerphilly: questions people ask
What do CIC accountants in Caerphilly charge?
We agree a fixed fee in writing before any work starts, based on what your CIC actually needs: the accounts, the community interest report, the bookkeeping and the funder reports. Calls, meetings and emails are never charged on top. We do not publish prices for CIC work because the reporting a funder asks for varies so much.
Can we switch to your CIC accountants in Caerphilly mid year?
Yes. You answer the questions on the site, we agree the fee, then we write to your current accountant for your records so you do not have to make that call. We complete ID checks and get authorised as your agent with HMRC and Companies House. The handover carries no separate charge.
What happens if HMRC writes to our CIC?
You send us the letter and we deal with HMRC for you. Tax investigation cover is included free for every client, so there is no extra bill for the work. Other firms sell this as an add-on for £300 to £1,000 a year. Every HMRC investigation we have handled, we have won.
Do we have to change our accounting software?
No. We work with the cloud software you already use. If you want to move to Xero we do the migration free. If your records are spreadsheets and bank statements, we take the paperwork as well and build the bookkeeping from there.
Can you write the quarterly spend report our funder wants?
Yes. We write quarterly and six-monthly spend, budget and forecast reports for more than ten community interest companies in and around Cardiff. You tell us the funder’s format and deadline, we produce the report and send it to you to check. We also introduce CIC clients to a fundraising consultant who helps find the next grant.
Do you set up new CICs, and is there anyone you turn away?
We handle CIC formation, including the community interest statement, and then run the accounts from there. We do not work with CIS construction subcontractors, we do not prepare charity accounts, and we do not take on businesses already late in an HMRC investigation. We say so straight at first contact rather than waste your time.
