NEW THIS YEAR: ACCOUNTING CLINIC

has been a pleasure to work with so many passionate LJMU students who have been keen to showcase their credentials as the marketeers of the future in our industry. They have provided genuine help to us by undertaking a reallife research project that we’re putting to direct use in order to offer the best possible ticketing packages for our supporters.”

In 2021-22 the Accounting and Finance academic team are proud to announce the full launch of the Accounting Clinic. This Clinic gives students from the Accounting and Finance degree an opportunity to work with an external client from the charity sector. Students will support the charity to complete an end of year independent examination. Charities eligible for this service are those with an income of between 25K and 250K. The Accounting Clinic is currently an extracurricular volunteering opportunity for our students, and with its initial introduction just six months ago, the clinic has already completed the independent examination for a local church with four students and has a further seven charitable organisations lined up to work with this in 2021-22. We anticipate the client base for this clinic to grow over the next twelve months.

We are grateful to: n The Associaton of Charity Independent Examiners (ACIE) who have trained 45 students to undertake this work. n The students who have signed up to volunteer in the Accounting Clinic. n The organisations that are already speaking to us already about using the clinic for their end of year independent examination. n Liverpool Business School

Staff who have supported the setup of the clinic - without them it would not have been possible.

We are excited to see this clinic grow over the next academic year delivering significant support to the region’s charitable sector.
