By Andy Spencer
Partners Airedale Enterprise Services and the Federation of Small Businesses were pleased to report it was a full house at the recent networking event showcasing ‘How to write effective Press Releases’ which attracted an additional 11 new businesses to the forum. Ros Dawson’s intriguing taster sent a clear message to the audience many of whom will be delegate’s on the 2 workshops running on the 13th March and 3rd April. Ros’s comprehensive approach teaches us what makes good media and why and identifies the stepping stones to engaging customers and increasing positive interest in your brand.
Quote From attendee Liz Farley from Gather for a party 
“Having heard Ros talk at our AWWEsome evening, she is clearly very experienced and I really want to tap into that. I also like the idea of being ‘locked’ in a room for a day to write a press release, it means I’ll get it done, and have the confidence to do it again and again. I used to work in PR and Marketing 18 years ago, but there was no social media to speak of then and the world was a different place, so I’m really looking forward to being shown how to do it all again”

Making Tax Digital
6th February 2019
Presented by Dave Forrester from TaxAssist Accountants Thursday 7th March – 5.30pm – 7.00pm
Join us for an up to date insight on what “Making Tax Digital” is all about and how it could affect your business from 1st April 2019
What is Making Tax Digital?
Making Tax Digital is intended to bring the UK tax system into the 21st century by providing businesses with a modern, streamlined system to keep their tax records and provide information to HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC).
The first to be affected will be small businesses and individuals with a turnover above the VAT threshold of £85,000, who will be required to keep digital records for VAT purposes from April 2019.
Why is HMRC introducing it?
Making Tax Digital is intended to help you better keep track of how much tax you owe – or how much you are due back – throughout the financial year.
Accurate Tax Information
Replacing paper-based bookkeeping with digital tax accounts will let you check the information HMRC holds about you is 100% correct.
Reduced Errors
Making Tax Digital’s new reporting function will allow HMRC will to look at your tax information almost immediately, reducing human error from data input.
Easier to understand
HMRC anticipates taxpayers will better understand how much tax is owed within the digital tax account – much like online banking.
Easier contact with HMRC
Making Tax Digital will make it easier for you to contact HMRC online via webchats and secure messages.
The workshop will be held at Airedale Enterprise Services on Thursday 7th March 2019.
