About LedgerUp CIC

We help young people get job‑ready for accounting & finance.

LedgerUp CIC is a Cardiff-based community interest company providing practical training, mentoring, and employability support for young people (especially those who may not have a clear route into work).

Our focus is confidence, real skills, and real pathways: bookkeeping fundamentals, Excel for finance, digital accounting tools (e.g., Xero), and career support such as CV building and interview practice.
