Simplified Tax Solutions
Corporation Tax Returns
We calculate and submit your company’s Corporation Tax return to HMRC, making sure you stay compliant and don’t pay a penny more than you need to.
Get It Right, Avoid Surprises, and Don’t Pay More Than You Should
Corporation Tax can be a major cost for limited companies — and a major worry if you’re unsure what to expect. At Welbourne & Co, we make the process straightforward by handling everything for you, giving you clarity and peace of mind.
We calculate your company’s Corporation Tax liability based on your year-end accounts and submit your return (CT600) to HMRC on your behalf. But we also take the time to explain your tax position, spot opportunities for savings, and help you plan ahead — so it’s not just about compliance, but confidence.
What’s Included
- Preparation and submission of your Corporation Tax return (CT600)
- Detailed tax calculation based on your company accounts
- Review of allowable expenses and available reliefs
- Proactive advice on reducing your future tax liability
- Deadline reminders and HMRC correspondence handled
- Full explanation of your tax bill in plain English
Smart, Stress-Free Tax Handling
We use cloud accounting tools to streamline the process and ensure accuracy. And because we’re keeping your bookkeeping and accounts in good order throughout the year, there are no last-minute scrambles or unexpected surprises.
You’ll always know:
- How much Corporation Tax you owe
- When it’s due
- Why it’s that amount — explained clearly
Minimising Tax the Right Way
We don’t believe in aggressive schemes or risky loopholes. Instead, we help you make the most of what you’re legitimately entitled to — from allowable expenses and capital allowances to R&D tax relief (where applicable). Simple, effective, and fully compliant.

Local Expertise with a Personal Touch
Welbourne & Co was founded in 2010 by Richard Welbourne with a simple idea: accountancy should be efficient, affordable, and genuinely helpful for business owners.
After years working in larger regional firms, Richard saw first-hand how traditional accountancy practices often came with hefty overheads and outdated systems. Determined to do things differently, he set up Welbourne & Co with a streamlined model—using smart technology instead of large offices, and passing those savings on to clients.
If I use Xero, do I still need an accountant?
Yes. Xero is a brilliant bookkeeping tool, but bookkeeping is just the beginning. As Chartered Certified Accountants, we use that data to prepare your statutory accounts, submit corporation tax returns, and ensure compliance with HMRC and Companies House. We help turn your bookkeeping into real insight and ensure nothing is missed.
What does it mean that you’re Chartered Certified Accountants?
It means we’re fully qualified, regulated, and held to high professional standards. Many lenders, including mortgage providers, now require accounts to be signed off by a Chartered accountant — so it really matters. You’re in safe, credible hands with us.
You’re a Xero Gold Partner — what does that mean?
It’s a recognition of our deep experience with Xero and the number of clients we support on the platform. Being a Gold Partner shows our commitment to cloud accounting and reflects the trust our clients place in us — especially impressive for a firm our size.
Can you help me get started with cloud accounting?
Absolutely. We’ve helped many businesses move onto Xero and similar tools. We’ll guide you through setup, provide training, and be on hand for support whenever you need it.
Do you work with limited companies and sole traders?
