Second City Ventures Limited

We are a firm of Chartered Accountants providing accountancy and tax services to local businesses and private individuals.

Cooke Watts & Co was formed to bring together accounting and tax professionals with many years of experience and different areas of expertise into one firm. We are based in Kineton, Warwickshire, with an additional office in Shipston-on-Stour, and specialise in small and medium sized businesses, providing a high quality, personalised service for our valued clients and building lasting working relationships. We offer a full suite of accounting, payroll and taxation services, enabling us to take the compliance and administrative burden away so that you can concentrate on running your business. Unlike many accountants, we also benefit from experience working in senior finance positions in business, successfully turning around results and driving improved financial performance. Not only does this mean we have a full understanding of the day-to-day challenges you face, but we offer additional services to add real value, without the price tag often charged in this field.

We won't make you put on a tie and march down to the office with your paperwork - it's not the 1970's, is it? We do everything online, from meetings via video call to bookkeeping with Xero. The funny thing is, that seems to give us more time to connect with our clients as people. And it gives them more time too, for work or for family. And that's what really matters. Are there financial admin jobs that you wish someone would just take off your to-do list? From staff payroll to VAT returns to bookkeeping, they take up precious time and, let's face it, aren't why anybody goes into business. Or maybe you need something more - the guidance of someone who knows their stuff, who's been where you are, so you can dodge the pitfalls and grab every opportunity that comes your way. If it involves compliance, tax or numbers, the Blue Shore team can help. Ultimately, it's about getting your business running smoothly, helping it grow and making space for you to do your thing.
