About Fernside

Online accountants for UK small businesses.

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.

Fahmina Jahan MIAB

Founder, Fernside Accounting

Fahmina leads day-to-day operations and is the firm's point of contact for clients. A Member of the International Association of Bookkeepers (MIAB), with several years of experience in bookkeeping and small-business compliance.

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.

What we stand for
  • Fixed pricing — five clear monthly packages from £30/mo, published on our pricing page
  • Quality oversight — FCCA + CTA review on every set of accounts and tax return
  • Plain English — no jargon, no surprise bills, no long contracts
  • Specialist support — complex work referred to our sister firm The Tax Lead

Reviewed by an FCCA + CTA.

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.
