Move to digital bookkeeping ready for HMRC changes in April
Running your own business is rewarding — but let’s be honest, it can also feel like you’re juggling a thousand jobs at once. Between looking after customers, keeping the business moving, and trying to have a life outside of work, bookkeeping often ends up at the bottom of the to-do list.
That’s where we come in. At We Group Sussex, we help local businesses make the switch from manual paperwork to stress-free digital bookkeeping. We take care of the transition so you can spend less time chasing receipts and more time doing what you love. If you haven’t yet transitioned, you need to get started for HMRC purposes and the deadline for Making Tax Digital on 6 April, 2026.
The benefits of switching to digital
Moving your accounts to a secure, cloud-based bookkeeping system isn’t just about keeping up with technology — it’s about making your life easier.
- Save time: No more evenings spent buried in spreadsheets or piles of invoices.
- Stay organised: Your accounts are always up to date, ready for tax time or whenever you need them.
- Work anywhere: Access your finances from your phone, tablet, or laptop — whether you’re on site, at the office, or on holiday.
- Peace of mind: With everything backed up and compliant, you can relax knowing your business is in safe hands.
We Group support the following sectors
We know that every business is different, and that’s why our support is tailored to you. We work with:
- Tradespeople who’d rather be on the tools than sorting through receipts.
- Small B2B service providers who need clear, professional accounts to grow.
- Busy consultants, health professionals and counsellors who want more hours in the day.

- Beauty Salons, factories or holiday rental owners who want simple systems for managing their income.
- And of course, busy mums and dads who run a business but would love an extra hour in the evening with the kids instead of the accounts.
We don’t just hand you a new digital bookkeeping system and leave you to it — we make the whole transition simple and stress-free:

FAQs about digital bookkeeping
What is digital bookkeeping?
Digital bookkeeping means managing your accounts using secure, cloud-based software instead of paper records or spreadsheets. It keeps everything organised, up to date, and accessible from anywhere.
Is cloud bookkeeping secure?
Yes. Cloud-based systems use bank-level encryption and secure backups to protect your financial data. It’s often safer than keeping paper records that can be lost or damaged.
Do I need to be “techy” to use digital bookkeeping?
Not at all! We set everything up for you, provide simple training, and even manage the system on your behalf if you prefer.
Can you move all my existing records over?
Absolutely. We’ll migrate your past records securely into the new system, so you can start fresh without losing any important information.
How will digital bookkeeping save me time?
With automation and real-time updates, you’ll no longer need to spend hours manually updating spreadsheets or searching for receipts — freeing up more time for your business, family, or yourself.
