The new 2026/27 tax year is officially here 📊

With it come a few important changes that could affect both business owners and employees in the UK, including:

• higher dividend tax rates
• an increase in the National Minimum Wage
• changes to Statutory Sick Pay
• a higher Capital Gains Tax rate when selling a business
• income tax thresholds remaining frozen until 2028

For company directors and business owners, this makes tax planning more important than ever.

How you structure your salary, dividends, and long-term plans can make a real difference to how much tax you end up paying.

Swipe through the slides for a quick breakdown of the key changes.

So, if you’re feeling generous this Valentine’s Day, spread the love without the tax bill! 💌

☕✨ International Coffee Day ✨☕

Today I want to give a little appreciation to one of my amazing clients — Stefano, The Italian Coffee Guy ().

Stefano’s journey started with a passion for connection, conversation, and of course coffee. Through his Love Hope Strength Podcast, he brings together everyday people from all walks of life, capturing their stories of love, hope, and resilience. From there, his speciality coffee brand was born — each blend inspired by those same values. 🌍❤️

It’s a reminder that behind every cup of coffee, there’s a story, and behind every business, there’s a person with passion.

So today, I’ll raise my mug (yes, even my accountant’s one! 📊☕) to Stefano and to all small business owners who pour their heart into what they do.

Happy International Coffee Day! 🎉

It’s easy to lose track of things when you’re running a business — a few cash jobs, personal expenses mixed into business ones, or receipts that never made it into your records.

It doesn’t always mean you’re doing something “wrong” — often it’s just lack of time, support, or clarity. That’s where a good accountant comes in.

✨ I help small business owners:
✔️ Stay on top of finances
✔️ Understand what’s tax-deductible
✔️ Keep records clean and simple
✔️ Plan ahead instead of fixing things later

If you want more clarity (and less panic when brown envelopes arrive), I’m always here to help.
No judgment. Just practical support that works.

The truth is — HMRC knows more than most people think.They collect data from:

🏦 Banks
👩‍💼 Employers
🏡 Airbnb & online platforms
🏥 Pension providers

Then they cross-check everything to catch:
🔍 Unreported income
📝 Late or missing returns
⚠️ Undeclared side hustles

So if you’re thinking of “waiting it out”… it’s not worth the stress. Be proactive, not reactive.

We can help you file accurately — without the panic.📩 DM us to get your return sorted the easy way.
