Time to start getting ready for Making Tax Digital

Time to start getting ready for Making Tax Digital (MTD)

MTD is designed to make it easier for taxpayers to get their tax right and replacing the current system of an annual self-assessment tax return with a new digital system for more frequent reporting and tax management.

If you are self-employed or a landlord, now is the time to start preparing for MTD - Find out more in Scott Whitmore's blog or get in touch with any questions at Dafferns.com

It’s always an enjoyable time meeting the next generation, whether they choose to become accountants or not, we certainly do hope they consider us when they finish their degree though!

Today marks Time to Talk Day, a national initiativ

Today marks Time to Talk Day, a national initiative encouraging open conversations about mental health. You can find out more about the campaign here @timetochangecampaign

At Dafferns, we recognise the importance of mental wellbeing, not just within our team but across the broader professional community. Open discussions about mental health help break down stigma and create a more supportive and understanding workplace for everyone.

We want to take this opportunity to highlight the importance of accessible mental health support and remind our team of the various resources we offer to help prioritise wellbeing. Whether through internal initiatives, professional guidance, or open conversations, we are committed to fostering a supportive and inclusive environment.

Prioritising mental health is not just about having resources in place but about creating a culture where people feel heard, valued, and supported. By making mental wellbeing a core part of our workplace, we encourage open dialogue and ensure our team knows they can access support when needed.

If you or someone you know is struggling, we encourage you to reach out - whether within your own organisation or through external support networks. Mental health matters, and together, we can make a difference.
