At Glover Stanbury, every service we provide is structured to deliver meaningful benefit to our clients businesses and personal wealth. Our firms foundations extend back many decades, shaped by a management buy-out of the North Devon offices of Ernst & Young in 1990, which led to the creation of Glover Pearce & Ross, followed by our merger with Barrow Bartlett & Stanbury in 1997. These milestones collectively formed the practice you know today as Glover Stanbury. While we deliver all the traditional services expected of Chartered Accountants, our approach is distinguished by the additional value we bring through considered guidance, practical support, and advice that positively influences long-term outcomes for our clients.

The majority of those we act for live and work in North Devon, reflecting our own local roots. Our client base is predominantly made up of family-owned and owner-managed businesses, ranging from sole traders to substantial limited companies. Advising such enterprises has naturally become an area of particular strength for us, complemented by our expertise in the effective use of information technology within businesses, extending well beyond core accounting systems. Our professional work spans a wide range of sectors, including tourism, professional practices, agriculture, manufacturing, construction, retail, and wholesale, allowing us to apply broad commercial insight across diverse industries.

Accounting & Bookkeeping

Report

We manage your accounting and bookkeeping so your time remains focused on running the business. Using modern online systems, we agree your requirements and implement robust procedures and controls to keep records current and compliant. We deliver regular management accounts covering cashflow, profitability, credit control and budget comparisons. We also handle payroll administration, VAT returns and annual accounts.

Audit

Report

We treat the annual audit and accounts preparation as a value-creating exercise, not merely an obligation. While fulfilling statutory requirements, we review financial and management systems to identify risks and improvement opportunities. We discuss our findings with you and assist with implementing agreed solutions. The annual report is crafted to enhance external perceptions and strengthen future business prospects.

Business start-up

Report

We support entrepreneurs who have strong ideas and commitment but lack specialist knowledge of legal, financial and tax matters. Our team provides clear, practical guidance to remove uncertainty and build confidence. We assess your ideas realistically, advise on structure, planning, finance and registrations, and establish effective systems. Our aim is to help your venture begin on a secure and well-informed footing.

Corporate Tax Planning

Report

Corporation tax forms a significant element of our clients trading costs and requires careful control. Increasing reporting obligations, robust investigations and tougher penalties can divert valuable time and resources. We deliver structured corporate tax planning to minimise exposure while easing administrative pressures. Our work addresses efficient business structures, appropriate reliefs, accurate compliance and representation in dealings with the authorities.
