Yesterday Hailey attended Accountex in London — a great day networking with fellow accountants, catching up on the latest Making Tax Digital (MTD) updates, and attending some really insightful seminars. Always good to stay connected and up to date with what’s happening in the industry! 🤓

Today is National Receptionist Day!

And here are the faces behind the lovely voices you hear when you call our office line, Sally and Karmen.

Sally has been working for Whitehead and Howarth for 43 years, whilst Karmen joined 8 years ago.

Their professionalism, organisation, and warm welcomes keep everything running smoothly every day.

Thank you for being the heart of our workplace and the first smile everyone sees.
