About Fernside
Fernside Accounting is a UK online practice serving sole traders, landlords and small limited companies. Founded by Fahmina Jahan MIAB, our work is supervised by a Chartered Certified Accountant (FCCA) and Chartered Tax Adviser (CTA) — so the technical detail is right, at a fixed monthly price.
Meet the founder

Founder, Fernside Accounting

Our approach
Fernside Accounting was incorporated in 2017 (Companies House registration 10867432). The firm focuses on what most small businesses actually need: annual accounts, tax returns, VAT, payroll and bookkeeping — done properly, on time, at a fair monthly price.
Most online accountants at our price point are bookkeeper-led with no chartered oversight. We do it differently: every set of accounts and every tax return at Fernside is reviewed by a Chartered Certified Accountant (FCCA) and Chartered Tax Adviser (CTA) — Shamim Bhuiyan, a senior tax practitioner — before it goes out.
For complex tax work — R&D claims, restructuring, EIS/SEIS, international tax, HMRC investigations — we refer to our sister firm The Tax Lead, Chartered Certified Accountants and Chartered Tax Advisers based in the City of London.
Our head office is in Woodford Green, London. The service itself is delivered online — by email, phone and secure portal — so clients work with us from anywhere in the UK.
Technical oversight
Every set of accounts and every tax return that leaves Fernside is reviewed by Shamim Bhuiyan FCCA CTA before submission. Shamim is a senior tax practitioner with over a decade of in-house and practice experience — bringing the kind of chartered-level oversight most online accountants at our price point don't offer.
This is why we can charge fixed monthly fees from £30/mo and still deliver accurate, professionally-reviewed work. It's also why complex tax questions get referred to our sister firm The Tax Lead — where Shamim's full Chartered Certified and Chartered Tax Adviser expertise is available for advisory engagements.
