I have no hesitation in recommending Aurora Chartered Accountants. Dawn and Martyn offer a superb professional, friendly and affordable service. As a start up business, it can sometimes be overwhelming making sense of tax and expenses but Dawn makes the whole process a lot easier to understand. She is always on hand to answer any questions and offer a level of support that is second to none. Thank you for a first class service that has certainly made my first year in business a lot easier.

Josie Neil - Infinity Virtual Assistant Solutions

I really didn't know much about the world of finance but I didn't find someone to guide me through until I found Aurora Chartered Accountants. They were very helpful and they didn't mind going the extra mile for me.

Carla Camara

I started a Kumon franchise 3 years ago and reached the stage where I needed guidance in order to put in place efficient systems to deal with staff wages and financial administration. I first met Dawn in September 2011 and she has provided a very efficient and professional service. As a sole trader from a non-financial background, I feel more confident that with Dawn’s support I can confidently manage new challenges as the business grows.

Clare Bainbridge, Kumon Maths and English Instructor.

Dawn is a friendly and professional individual who listens and offers invaluable advice and support. She is extremely knowledgeable and takes the time to discuss your business at length. It is a delight to do business with Dawn and Martyn and I would have no hesitation in recommending Aurora, Chartered Accountants.

Sarah Brown - Pink Link Ladies (Bolton)

When I became self-employed I was lost at the thought of tax returns and self assessments. I wasn't generating a great deal of income and didn't think I would be able to afford to employ an accountant. A friend recommended Aurora, Chartered Accountants to me as she had had a great experience using them herself. From the first phone call they offered me simple, friendly advice to help me get straight and at a very reasonable cost. They made everything seem very clear and took a great weight off my shoulders. I would highly recommend using Aurora, Chartered Accountants to anyone, especially those who are thinking of starting up businesses or becoming self-employed. Thank you again.

Aurora, Chartered Accountants have provided a fantastic service over the past few months when we have really needed help.

We went to Aurora with any queries, these were answered immediately and the efficiency of the team is second to none.

The help we received from Dawn of Aurora, Chartered Accountants was just invaluable. Such a personal service, and in all the years I have run a business, I’ve never had such an accommodating, helpful accountant who goes to such great lengths, to make sure that each and every one of your accounting needs are met. I’ve never been fond of accounts, but working with Dawn has made life much easier in all honesty. I would truly, and regularly do, recommend Aurora, Chartered Accountants to anyone, whether they are setting up in business, or have been trading for a number of years. This company can make a real difference, and take away any accountancy concerns.

I have been using Aurora Chartered Accountants for the last 5 months, for my rental property and for my full time job. Dawn and Martyn pointed out ways I can reduce taxes and boost my income in legitimately creative ways. They are always there to answer my questions when I make new investments or how to do effective tax planning for my small business. Nothing is too much trouble even coming to my home or inviting me to theirs if needed. An excellent, personal and valued service.
