References to “you” or “your” mean the person accessing or using this website.

By visiting, browsing, or otherwise using this website you confirm that you accept these terms of use and agree to comply with them. If you are using the website on behalf of a business or organisation, you confirm that you have the authority to bind that entity to these terms.

We may update these terms from time to time. The version published on this page is the current version and replaces all previous versions. Continued use of the website after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

The content published on this website — including blog articles, guides, deadline information, and any other written material — is provided for general information purposes only. It does not constitute professional accountancy, tax, legal, or financial advice and must not be relied upon as such.

Tax and accountancy rules are complex, change frequently, and their application depends heavily on individual circumstances. What applies to one person or business may not apply to another. Before making any decision based on information found on this website, you should seek specific professional advice from a qualified adviser who is familiar with your situation.

We make reasonable efforts to ensure the accuracy of the information published on this website, but we cannot guarantee that all content is current, complete, or error-free. Whilst we endeavour to keep HMRC deadlines and tax figures up to date, you should always verify important dates and figures directly with HMRC or a qualified professional before acting on them.

A professional engagement only exists between us and a client once a formal client engagement letter has been signed by both parties. Submitting an enquiry form, booking a consultation, or communicating with us by email does not create a professional relationship or impose any obligation on us to act on your behalf.
