Partners

Not your typical accountants.

Bored of hearing the same old spiel? Fed up of trying to make sense of accountancy jargon? Us too. Which is why you can count on us to keep things clear and simple for you with a no-nonsense, straight-talking approach to your business.

Why you can count on us to be clear

Money matters. But if your accountant doesn’t make your money matters easy for you to understand and take care of - if they don’t show you where you’re going wrong and how you can be doing better - it can feel like you’re not getting your money’s worth, right?

So, let us be clear on what we can do for you: Across all of our services, we’ll guide you on how to make, and save, more money. Simple. In order for us to do that, expect us to work with you much more closely than other accounts would. Expect us to get to know your business as well as you do. Expect us to point out the problems, but expect us to bring solutions, offer fresh ideas and spot opportunities, too. Don’t expect us to try and impress you with our expertise though, because making what we do simple for you to understand and trust in, is what we’re all about. We don’t want to bore or bamboozle you - we want you to really see the value in partnering with an accountancy that is clear on how they can help grow your business and your profits.

So, if you’re looking for a different kind of accountant, let’s have a chat.

Our services include:

• Setting up and registering your business
• Setting up as self employed / sole trader and filing your returns
• Completing your tax returns and other tax services
• Completing your bookkeeping and other accountancy services
• Running your payroll

Pension planning 

Whether you are planning, looking to retire imminently, or are already retired, you have various options and choices available to you. Our pension planning specialists will identify your objectives, review any existing arrangements, and help you obtain the best solution for your circumstances and needs. Our financial planners can also help you navigate the ever-increasingly complex pension landscape, including advice on funding, Tapered Annual Allowance and Lifetime allowance for pensions. 

Protection for your business and personal needs 

It is crucial that if the unforeseen were to happen, the people who rely on you are protected financially, whether in your personal or business life. With many insurance policies available to help achieve financial protection, choosing the right plan for you can seem difficult. We can assist by reviewing your circumstances, understanding what is important to you, prioritising based on your budget and then making cost-effective recommendations to meet your objectives. As independent advisers, we will research the marketplace and make recommendations from leading insurers based on cost, service and plan features that are appropriate for you and that you can rely on to provide you with peace of mind.

What is diabetes?

Diabetes is a disease that occurs when your blood glucose, also called blood sugar, is too high. Blood glucose is your main source of energy and comes from the food you eat. Insulin, a hormone made by the pancreas, helps glucose from food get into your cells to be used for energy. Sometimes your body doesn’t make enough—or any—insulin or doesn’t use insulin well. Glucose then stays in your blood and doesn’t reach your cells.

Over time, having too much glucose in your blood can cause health problems. Although diabetes has no cure, you can take steps to manage your diabetes and stay healthy.

To find out more, click here to watch a two minute video.

What are the different types of diabetes?

If you have type 1 diabetes, your body does not make insulin. Your immune system attacks and destroys the cells in your pancreas that make insulin. Type 1 diabetes is usually diagnosed in children and young adults, although it can appear at any age. People with type 1 diabetes need to take insulin every day to stay alive.

If you have type 2 diabetes, your body does not make or use insulin well. You can develop type 2 diabetes at any age, even during childhood. However, this type of diabetes occurs most often in middle-aged and older people. Type 2 is the most common type of diabetes.

What are the symptoms of diabetes?

• Urinating often.
• Feeling very thirsty.
• Feeling very hungry—even though you are eating.
• Extreme fatigue.
• Blurry vision.
• Cuts/bruises that are slow to heal.
• Weight loss—even though you are eating more (type 1)
• Tingling, pain, or numbness in the hands/feet (type 2)

How common is diabetes?

Diabetes is one of the most common chronic diseases in the UK, and its prevalence is increasing. In 2018–2019 there were 3,919,505 people diagnosed with diabetes. About 90% of adults currently diagnosed have type 2 diabetes.

What health problems can be caused by diabetes?

Chronic complications can gradually build up over time if symptoms are not checked. These include:

• Eye problems
• Foot problems
• Heart attack & stroke
• Kidney problems
• Nerve damage
• Gum disease
• Sexual problems in men & women

What is cancer?

Cancer starts in our cells. Cells are tiny building blocks that make up the body’s organs and tissues. Cells receive signals from the body, telling them when to grow and when to divide to make new cells. This is how our bodies grow and heal. These cells can become old, damaged or no longer needed. When this happens, the cell gets a signal from the body to stop working and die.

Sometimes these signals can go wrong, and the cell becomes abnormal. The abnormal cell may keep dividing to make more and more abnormal cells. These can form a lump, called a tumour.

What are the symptoms of cancer?

When should I see my GP about cancer symptoms?

Different types of cancer have different symptoms. These symptoms can be caused by things other than cancer.

It can be difficult to know whether a symptom is important or not. You may worry that you are wasting your GP's time. Or you might feel embarrassed or anxious talking about it.

But if you notice a change in how you feel or how your body works, it is safer to get it checked. A change does not usually mean you have cancer, but it could be something that needs treatment. It is a good idea to get it checked by your GP.

If it is cancer, the earlier it is found, the more likely it is to be cured. If it is nothing serious, your GP can reassure you.

Some symptoms are difficult to talk about, for example a lump on your testicle or vaginal bleeding. But even if it's embarrassing, it is important to get checked.

What is mental health?

Mental health includes our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel, and act. It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make healthy choices. Mental health is important at every stage of life, from childhood and adolescence through adulthood.

You should not feel ashamed

According to the World Health Organisation, 1 in 4 people will experience mental health problems at some point in their lives. That’s one-quarter of the world’s population and yet people feel ashamed to talk about it. 

Mental illness is no one's fault. No one asks to have a mental illness and it is definitely not a choice we make. We're not ashamed when our bodies get sick, so why should we be ashamed when our minds aren't in top form?

It is important as a society we learn to talk openly about mental health. The more we openly discuss it, the more acceptable it becomes. When we share our experiences with mental illness, we inspire others to prioritise their own mental well-being. Hear the stories of 13 young people people aged 18-25 as they talk about what it's like to live with a mental health problem, and what helps them cope in Mind's video Mental Health: In Our Own Words

What are the different types of mental illness?

There are many types of mental health conditions, with some of the most common including::

• Depression
• Anxiety
• Bipolar Affective Disorder 
• Schizophrenia and other Psychosis
• Dementia
• Eating Disorders
• Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
