About us!

Before you decide on your bookkeeper, you need a little background info....



Hi! I'm Annabel Barnes, Director and Founder of Bluebells Bookkeeping Ltd




 I am an experienced AAT Licensed Accountant. I enjoy supporting businesses to ensure that they stay in control of their finances. 


I founded Bluebells Bookkeeping in 2020 so that I could maintain my career whilst being able to provide support and care for my young family. I was always interested in bookkeeping/accountancy from a young age – so it only seemed fit that I start a career in it. I trained and gained my accountancy qualifications (level 2 through to level 4) with AAT 2008-2010. During this time I was working within the bookkeeping industry where I spent the best part of 10 years with companies who provided support to those that face mental health challenges and learning difficulties. For this reason I am also a director for the CIC, NAC which is such a worthwhile cause.


In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family, reading and going on holiday (when we can!)


At Bluebells Bookkeeping we work with various types of industries and specialise in The Beauty Industry (I spent 6 years working in companies within the beauty industry), Health sector and Construction. They sound so different right? Actually there’s so many similarities that you just wouldn’t believe! We are happy to consider helping businesses in any industry so if you don’t fall under these categories, don't worry we can still assist you!
