Accounting services for Chorley businesses

Your Chorley-focused accountant

Chorley is a market town with a strong base of independent retailers, tradespeople, professional services and a growing business park economy at Buckshaw Village. We work with owner-managed businesses across the town: retailers on Market Street and Fazakerley Street, professional-services firms around Chorley town centre, tradespeople across Astley Village and Coppull, contractors at Buckshaw Village, and landlords managing rental portfolios in Adlington, Whittle-le-Woods and Clayton-le-Woods.

Everything runs through Xero or QuickBooks so you get real-time visibility of your numbers, fixed monthly fees agreed upfront, replies the same working day, and the option of a face-to-face meeting when it is useful.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you work with businesses based at Buckshaw Village?

Yes. Buckshaw Village has grown into one of Chorley’s main business hubs, and we act for a number of companies and contractors based there. Everything is handled through Xero or QuickBooks, so distance from our Blackburn office isn’t an issue — you get the same fixed-fee service and same-day responses as any other client.

I run an independent shop on Market Street — is this the right accountant for a small retailer?

Yes. We work with a number of independent retailers in Chorley town centre, from Market Street traders to shops around Fazakerley Street, and we understand the cashflow and VAT issues that come with running a small retail business. We can set you up on simple cloud software so your bookkeeping takes minutes, not hours.

How far is Chorley from your office, and do I need to travel?

Our office is in Blackburn, roughly 20–25 minutes from Chorley town centre via the M61 and M65 (junction 5). In practice most Chorley clients rarely need to travel — onboarding and reviews are usually done by phone or video call, with a face-to-face meeting available whenever it’s useful.

I already have an accountant in Chorley — how do I switch?

We handle the whole handover for you. Once you instruct us, we write to your current accountant, request your records and prior-year files, and manage the transfer directly with them — you don’t need to chase anything yourself. Most switches for Chorley clients are complete within one to two weeks.
