Supporting Charities with Confidence, Clarity, and Compliance

At Prydis, we provide expert audit and independent examination services for charities and not-for-profit organisations across the UK. Whether your organisation is driven by community, culture, education, or social impact, we help ensure your financial reporting is accurate, transparent, and aligned with the latest Charity Commission requirements.

We go beyond compliance, delivering insight that empowers trustees, reassures funders, and supports good governance.

When Does a Charity Need an Audit?

Your charity may require an audit or independent examination depending on its income, assets, and governing document. Under current UK law:

A charity audit is required if:

• Gross income exceeds £1 million, or
• Gross income exceeds £250,000 and total assets exceed £3.26 million.

An independent examination applies to charities below this threshold, offering a cost-effective alternative to a full audit.

Whatever your size, we’ll help you understand what level of assurance is required and ensure your charity remains fully compliant.
