🚨 Big changes to R&D Tax Relief - are you ready?

From April 2024, the UK’s R&D tax relief schemes have been reshaped into a single merged scheme, replacing the old SME and RDEC regimes. While this simplifies things, it may also mean reduced benefits for many businesses.

But there’s good news 👇�💡 Loss-making, R&D-intensive SMEs could still access enhanced support (ERIS)�💡 If your R&D spend is 30%+ of total costs, you may qualify

Understanding what you can claim - and how much - has never been more important.

🍺 Why are so many pubs closing their doors?

Across the UK, local pubs are disappearing at an alarming rate - and it’s not just shifting habits to blame.

Rising costs, higher business rates, wage pressures and tighter margins are making it harder than ever for pub owners to stay open, even when venues are busy and well‑loved.

In our latest blog, we look at what’s really driving pub closures and why these challenges matter to communities, employers and the wider economy.

Understanding the rules could help you support loved ones while reducing future tax exposure.

💸 Cash flow problems rarely start with sales. They start with silence.

Chasing invoices might feel uncomfortable - but ignoring them is far riskier.

Credit control is the quiet discipline that keeps businesses stable, paying suppliers on time and sleeping better at night. Yet it’s one of the most neglected parts of running a company.

If you’ve ever thought:
* “They’ll pay eventually…”
* “I don’t want to upset a good client…”
* “We’re too busy to chase invoices…”
