CFW Chartered Accountants & Business Advisers

CFW is a modern, friendly, approachable firm of Chartered Accountants and Business Advisers. CFW Chartered Accountants assist in many business start-ups.

Our new offices are located on the A43 and are easily accessible from Kettering and Corby. CFW are business advisors and not just Accountants and recognise that clients require much more than number crunching and compliance work. The ever increasing burden of new regulations can be reduced by using our additional payroll, book-keeping and compliance services. We offer a wide range of services for

small to medium sized family businesses. This part of the business cycle can be very difficult and stressful for new clients and we provide constant assistance and back-up to allow the business to develop. All aspects of the new business are covered from liaising with banks and financiers to covering all statutory and revenue compliance work. CFW’s turnaround of work is geared to clients needs. Substantial investment in I.T. permits not only accurate and professional accounts to be provided to clients, but assists us in remaining cost effective to our clients. We have been established for over 25 years and we pride ourselves on providing both a professional and personal service to deliver the right solutions for your business. CFW has five partners and over 15 staff with many years experience in a wide range of business sectors and also has specialist knowledge in many areas. The growing number of women in business has not been overlooked by us and we appreciate that 50% of our potential clients are women. Having a female partner within our team gives us an advantage in this respect and we believe that this reflects the needs of our customers. We like to think of ourselves as client led and aim to provide the services that our clients want and not what we think they need. With a team of 8 qualified and experienced Accountants we can assist with any of your accountancy needs. Our CFW team looks forward to welcoming new clients and to continuing to work with our existing clients whom we highly value, and whom we are confident will continue to recommend our services. Whatever your Accountancy needs, a call to CFW Chartered Accountants in Kettering will provide the answer.

We were delighted to receive a lovely thank you from Rotary Club of Kettering Huxloe following their recent charity dinner event.

Members of the CFW team were pleased to attend an inspiring evening featuring guest speakers Jonathan Agnew and Eboni Usoro-Brown, who even brought along the gold medal she won at the 2018 Commonwealth Games, a fantastic moment for everyone there.
Supporting local charities and community events is something we’re proud to be part of, and it was wonderful to see so many people coming together for such a worthwhile cause.

Thank you to the Rotary Club for organising such a memorable evening.

P11Ds – are you ready for the deadline? 📄

If your limited company provides benefits to employees, you may need to submit a P11D to HMRC.

A P11D is required where staff receive benefits such as:
• Company cars 🚗
• Private medical insurance 🏥
• Other taxable benefits provided by the business

These benefits must be reported to HMRC as the company is required to pay National Insurance on them.

📌 Key deadlines to remember:
• 6 July 2026 – P11D submission deadline (for the tax year ending 5 April 2026)
• 22 July 2026 – Payment of any Class 1A National Insurance (if paying electronically)

Getting this right and on time helps avoid penalties and ensures compliance with HMRC requirements.

For help in this area please call CFW Accountants on 01536 713555

It’s never too early to complete your Tax Return 🧾

Many people leave their Self Assessment until the deadline, but getting it done early has real advantages.

By submitting your return sooner, you’ll know exactly what tax is due in January – giving you time to plan ahead and set funds aside, rather than facing an unexpected bill.

Even better, if your tax liability turns out to be lower than expected, there may be options to review and potentially adjust payments on account later in the year (for example in July), depending on your circumstances.
Early completion = better control, better planning, fewer surprises.

Important CIS updates from April 2026 ⚠️

If you work in construction or use subcontractors, there are some key changes to the Construction Industry Scheme (CIS) you need to be aware of.

From April 2026, contractors must either:
• Submit a monthly CIS return (including nil returns where no subcontractors are used), or
• Notify HMRC in advance if no subcontractor payments will be made that month
📌 The “nil return” requirement has been reinstated and with it, a full late filing penalty regime.
That means penalties for late CIS returns can now include:
• £100 fixed penalty for a late submission
• £200 further penalty after 2 months
• Tax-geared penalties from 6 and 12 months (minimum £300 or 5% of liability at 6 months)

HMRC have also strengthened enforcement powers around fraud risk. In certain cases, Gross Payment Status (GPS) can now be removed immediately, along with penalties of up to 30% and extended reapplication periods of up to five years.
These are significant changes for contractors and subcontractors alike.

📌 If you’re a tradesperson or construction business and unsure how these updates affect you, CFW can help you stay compliant and avoid unnecessary penalties. Call us on 01536 713555

What is your business really worth – and what could that value help you achieve? 📊
Business valuation isn’t just for when you’re looking to sell. It can also be a powerful tool for:
• Raising finance or investment for growth 💼
• Planning expansion
• Bringing in partners
• Strengthening long-term strategy

Buyers and funders look beyond profit – they focus on stability, systems, and how transferable the business is.

Even if you’re not planning an exit, understanding these factors can help you build a more resilient and investable business.
