Please find herewith our latest newsletter.  We’re committed to ensuring that no client pays a penny more in tax than is necessary and they receive useful tax and business advice and support throughout the year.  If you need help or advice on your own specific circumstances please ask, we’re here to help.

If you have not already visited our office at Westbourne please be aware that our office is on the second floor of Tayfield House, accessed only by stairs (38 in total), and there is no lift. If this is likely to cause you a problem when visiting us please mention it at the time of booking your appointment as we could arrange to meet you at our Parkstone office in Ashley Road instead, as this is on the ground floor.

If you need to hand deliver any paperwork to either of our offices please be aware that there is no letterbox on the front of either building. Our Westbourne office has an outdoor mailbox with our name on it on the outside left hand wall. Our Parkstone office has a letterbox on the back labelled Units 1 and 2.
