The role of a modern-day accountant has changed.
Of course, we’ll help you get a strong grip on your finances and take away the stress of year-end accounts and tax returns. But we can also help sole traders, startups and SMEs to reach their full potential with advanced financial insights and ongoing business advice.
If you own a business or agricultural land, the last few months have probably felt unsettled. The proposed changes to Inheritance Tax (IHT) reliefs created real concern for many family businesses and farming families who rely on Agricultural Property Relief (APR) and Business Property Relief (BPR) to pass assets down the generations.
If you complete a Self Assessment tax return, you’ve probably been hearing about Making Tax Digital (MTD) for what feels like a long time. The change is now very real, and the first wave of taxpayers will be brought into the regime from 6 April 2026.
Many employees have relied on tax relief for the costs of working from home since the pandemic. However, the rules are changing, and it is worth understanding what this means for you before the next tax year begins.
With the tax and financial year end fast approaching on 5 April 2026, now is the moment to make sure you are not leaving money on the table. A little planning now can make a real difference to your tax position, your cash flow, and your longer-term financial security.
