Barnes Roffe – a passage in time
Tracing back to their roots in 1899, Barnes Roffe has grown out of a commitment to providing their clients with a lasting partnership that is mutually beneficial.
Barnes Roffe may have started out small, but they are a family styled business which over the last 100 years has expanded their offices to accommodate more than 100 employees in 4 different sites – a substantial growth from our founder, William H. Barnes’ first solo office in 1899.
Opening his doors for the first time on 1st August 1899, William H. Barnes set the foundations for the firm which to this day is dedicated towards going the extra mile for their clients - a family like culture which has been passed on and diligently followed by unrelated professional individuals who collectively strive towards the same objective of doing more for their clients.
Yet Barnes Roffe would like to believe their ‘expansion’ has not only been internal. To date Barnes Roffe have helped hundreds of graduates across the UK, who have since gone on to build successful careers and businesses of their own.
And more than 100 years later, the firm is still going strong, offering clients and colleagues alike, a culture which always strives to do more.

Income Tax Solutions
Income tax is exactly as it sounds ‘a tax on your income’. However not all income is taxable and even then you are only taxed when you earn above certain levels.
What is a taxable income?
Income tax includes: earnings from employment, earnings from self-employment, most pension schemes (including state, company and personal), interest generated on most savings accounts, income from shares, rental income and income paid to you from a trust. Essentially you can and will be taxed on almost everything you earn that is above your personal allowance.
How can we help?
At Barnes Roffe the team of tax accountants can help you to reduce the amount of income tax that is payable to the government and keep your earnings where they belong – with you!
Barnes Roffe are much more than your average accountancy firm. Through their commitment to providing you with the latest tax advice, support and industry knowledge, our tax consultants can ensure that you pay ONLY what you are liable for.
Tax Return Solutions
Also known as ‘Self Assessment’, calculating your tax return is simpler than you can imagine. All you need to do is complete an online/paper tax return (detailing all your income and capital gains over the past tax year) and using these figures the HMRC is able to work out your tax bill.
