About Us | Songbooks

Trusted, Practical
and Straightforward

We built Songbooks over many years to offer something different — a bookkeeping service where trusted relationships matter just as much as technical excellence.

Our clients don’t just want tidy ledgers. They need people who will listen, understand their world, ask the right questions, and meet them where they are — with compassion and professionalism.

We Work With

Charities who need fund tracking and trustee-ready reporting

Startups and growing SMEs who require efficient better processes and peace of mind

Finance teams looking to outsource parts of their finance function to experts

With a background in accounting, finance systems, and charity compliance, our team brings the clarity and attention to detail you need — with the warmth and collaboration you’ll appreciate.

Get Started

Our Values

At the heart of our work is a belief that numbers only make sense when they’re grounded in human understanding. These values guide how we show up for every client, every day.

Trust

We build relationships you can count on. Our clients trust us to be consistent, confidential, and always in their corner.

Curiosity

We’re not afraid to dig a little deeper. If something doesn’t add up, we don’t just tick it off — we figure it out. That curiosity helps us uncover insights and improve systems.

Collaboration

We don’t just process data — we work with you to understand what matters and how to make things better. We listen, we ask questions, and we adjust when needed.

Empathy

You’re not just a client — you’re a person, a team, a mission. We treat your challenges with care and your time with respect.

Excellence

From bookkeeping entries to board reports, we take pride in the quality of what we produce. Good enough isn’t good enough.

Always kind, measured and working closely with us as founders’ we’ve been lucky to have her as a trusted ally along the way"
