Accountants & Outsourced Finance in Lichfield
4.7/5· 47 Google reviewsLichfield is ten minutes up the A5127 from our office in Amington, and it is genuinely the local business community we know best after Tamworth's own. We have clients in the city centre, out at Fradley Park, and in the villages across the district.
It is not one economy, though, and treating it as one is where generic advice falls down. In the city centre — Bore Street, the Market Square, Bird Street — you have professional practices, independent retailers, cafés and hospitality businesses whose trade rises and falls with the seasons. The Bower, the Christmas market, the cathedral's own calendar and the summer visitors all move the numbers. Cashflow forecasting matters far more here than it does for a business with steady monthly income, because a good August does not pay for a quiet February on its own.
Fradley Park is a completely different proposition: distribution, manufacturing and logistics operating at a scale that has more in common with the M6 corridor than with the cathedral close. Higher transaction volumes, stock, plant, and often shift-based payroll. We work with both, and we do not pretend the same monthly pack suits each of them.
There is a practical Lichfield point worth flagging too. A good number of city-centre premises are listed or sit within the conservation area, which changes how you treat improvement and repair spend for tax — some of it is capital, some allowable, and the line is not always where owners assume. It is worth a conversation before the work starts rather than after the invoice lands. And because Lichfield District Council covers Burntwood and the surrounding villages as well as the city, business rates and reliefs are handled from one place, which at least keeps that part simple.

The wider team with Ali and co, have continued to be great. Would highly recommend anyone using CASS, certainly as a new business from my perspective they have been brilliant

Absolutely fantastic service from the team at CASS, (especially Paul). Not only did they support us with our book-keeping/accounting and EPOS system, but they genuinely went above and beyond — even helping us out of hours and on a Sunday to get everything set up properly. Nothing was too much trouble, and their support has been a massive part of getting our pet shop up and running smoothly from day one. We couldn’t be happier with the service we’ve received and honestly couldn’t have done it without them. Thanks again Paul and the team at CASS — truly appreciated! X

Since starting our new business in 2026, Cloud Accounting Support Services has been fantastic. They have made everything so much easier to manage, and their support has always been there whenever we’ve needed help. We couldn’t have asked for a better accounting partner.
