Charities

Navigating the complexities of tax regulations for charitable organisations requires a partner with specialist knowledge. HaysMac has built a reputation for excellent service in this unique sector over several decades.

Arts & Culture

With steep competition for audience share, in a cost-of-living squeeze and a rising cost base – it’s vital to make every penny count. We work with many organisations in the sector including museums and cultural venues, theatres, performing arts and educational charities, providing auditing and advisory services, including tax relief.

Care, Community & Housing

We understand the exceptional needs of organisations that rely on public sector and statutory funding to deliver a wide range of services. Our clients are highly regulated and often heavily staffed, so our skilful auditing and targeted advice on employment tax are especially beneficial.

International & Fundraising Charities

We work with clients that operate through overseas branches and subsidiaries and also international grant makers that do major fundraising activities in a tough environment. We understand the specialist nature of international development and the challenges faced by the sector.

Why HaysMac?

We are highly regarded in the charity sector for our external and internal audits, grant assurance services, charity and employment tax advisory, tax structuring, outsourcing, due diligence and VAT.

Our deep expertise allows us to provide pragmatic, human advice across financial systems, controls and governance.

As a  leading firm for the social purpose sector, we’re big enough to support major organisations but not so big that we forget the personal service our clients expect.

Direct charitable involvement as thought leaders, trustees and fundraisers

At both a senior and graduate level, our team has chosen to specialise in the social purpose space. We are passionate about the sector and enjoy working with organisations that are trying to make the world better. 

We regularly share our insights across the sector with updates, briefings and benchmarking reports that allow informed and meaningful comparisons. Partners volunteer their expertise to charity boards as trustees. 

Our staff voted in Rainbows Hospice for Children and Young People as our firm’s designated charity. HaysMac also supports the activities of the Charity Finance Group (CFG), Bond and Civil Society who we work with closely.
