HMRC-registered accountants based in Stanmore, serving Greenwich SE10. Tourism and hospitality around the Market and the Observatory, University of Greenwich freelancers, creatives and the diverse small businesses along Greenwich High Road and Trafalgar Road. Fixed fees, same-day filing.
Greenwich has one of London's most distinctive small business communities, shaped equally by tourism, history and a major university presence. SE10 covers Greenwich town centre, the Maritime Greenwich World Heritage area around the Cutty Sark and the Old Royal Naval College, Greenwich Park stretching up to the Royal Observatory, the long arm of Trafalgar Road running out toward the Peninsula and the O2, and Greenwich Market in the heart of it all. The result is a particularly varied business ecosystem: tourism-dependent hospitality and retail, the steady community of independent restaurants and pubs around the town centre, market traders at Greenwich Market, University of Greenwich academics and freelancers, and a growing creative cluster.
That mix creates a particular accounting profile. Tourism-dependent businesses need cash flow forecasting that accounts for seasonal patterns and the impact of major events (Greenwich Mean Time, the marathon, the river festivals). Market traders need Self-Assessment support and the right VAT scheme for small high-velocity retail. University-adjacent freelancers and consultants need contractor-aware structures and proper categorisation of academic and consulting income. And the SE10 creative community needs the usual mix of self-employment and Limited Company support. Your Tax Help Accountants, HMRC-registered, serves Greenwich clients online with fixed monthly fees.

Client S runs an independent artisan food stall at Greenwich Market, trading four days a week with a strong tourist trade and a smaller but loyal local following. When he came to us he'd been trading for three years on Self-Assessment, had never quite got around to registering for VAT despite his turnover now being well past the £85,000 threshold (he'd assumed market trading didn't count), and was carrying a growing worry about whether HMRC would eventually notice.
We registered him for VAT going forward, dealt with the historic position by voluntarily disclosing to HMRC, established that the VAT debt was around £18,000 across the period he'd been over the threshold, and negotiated a Time to Pay arrangement so he could clear it across 18 months without the business failing. We also moved him onto the Flat Rate Scheme (since he had minimal input VAT relative to his sales) which gave him a small ongoing benefit going forward.
Outcome: historic VAT position cleared cleanly, manageable repayment terms agreed with HMRC, ongoing Flat Rate Scheme saving around £2,200 a year compared to standard VAT, and Client S now has a system that handles future filings properly. He also sleeps again.
No obligation. No jargon. A straightforward conversation about your Greenwich business, whether you're a market trader, a tourism-dependent operator, or an SE10 freelancer.
