Accounting Built for Mental Health Providers
Mental health services face accounting challenges that general accountants rarely handle properly. NHS contract reconciliation, grant fund accounting, CIC and charity reporting, VAT on welfare services and outcome-based commissioning all demand advisors who know how mental health organisations operate.
ABM Chartered Accountants works with mental health charities, CICs, social enterprises, NHS-contracted providers and private therapy organisations across England, delivering structured financial support for mental health services and individual directors. Every grant report and tax return is handled accurately.
Helping Mental Health Services Manage Funding Effectively
Mental health service leaders need more than basic compliance. ABM Chartered Accountants prepares grant fund accounts, NHS contract reconciliation, CIC34 reports, charity SORP returns and tax planning, giving directors clear visibility over restricted funds, contract income and organisational sustainability.
Whether you run a mental health charity, a CIC delivering talking therapies, an NHS-contracted provider or a private counselling service, our ICAEW and ACCA qualified team adapts to your setup, keeping the organisation and directors covered on reporting and compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to common questions mental health charity trustees, CIC directors and service managers ask about specialist accounting.
Are mental health services VAT exempt?
It depends on structure. Charities and CQC-registered providers supplying welfare services are often VAT exempt. Private commercial providers may need to charge VAT once over the registration threshold.
How is grant funding accounted for?
Grants are classified as restricted or unrestricted funds. Restricted grants must be spent on the specified purpose and reported separately. Accurate fund accounting demonstrates compliance to funders and regulators.
What CIC reporting is required?
CICs must file annual accounts, a CIC34 community interest report and a confirmation statement with Companies House. The CIC34 details community benefit delivered and declares any dividend payments made.
How are NHS contracts reconciled?
NHS Talking Therapies and ICB contract income must be reconciled against actual service delivery and outcomes data. Year-end clawback provisions apply where targets are not met. Accurate tracking is essential.
Do charities follow different accounting rules?
Yes. Charities preparing accrual accounts follow the Charities SORP with fund accounting, trustee annual reports and specific disclosure requirements. Smaller charities may use receipts and payments accounts instead.
Can ABM support mental health services nationwide?
Yes. ABM Chartered Accountants serves mental health charities, CICs and providers across England using secure cloud-based platforms, delivering specialist accounting to organisations of all structures and sizes.
