When business owners think about valuations, financial performance is often the first thing that comes to mind. However, factors such as brand reputation, customer loyalty, supplier relationships, and market presence also play a role in determining the value of a business.

In our latest article, Alistair Hayward-Wright, Director and Head of Acquisitions at Hayward Wright, and Alex Footman, Director and Founder at Stephen Alexander, discuss how brand, reputation, and relationships influence business valuations and why intangible assets are becoming increasingly important.

Making Tax Digital (MTD) is no longer something businesses and landlords can put off as the first deadlines are approaching.

In his latest article, Ollie Newburn, Client Manager at Hayward Wright, explores what the rollout of MTD means in practice, and why the changes may be far more manageable than many initially feared.

From 6 April 2026, individuals with self-employment or rental income above £50,000 will need to keep digital records and submit quarterly updates using compatible software, with the threshold reducing to £30,000 from April 2027.

Making Tax Digital represents one of the biggest changes to the UK tax system in recent years, but with the right preparation it can also provide businesses with an opportunity to modernise processes and gain better insight into performance.

We’ve got some exciting news to share!

As part of our growth plan, we have expanded into Yorkshire and merged with Auker Rhodes, an independent accountancy practice based in Leeds.

This is an incredibly exciting time for everyone here at Hayward Wright as we expand our footprint outside of the Midlands region for the first time, following a strong period of organic growth.

Auker Rhodes was established in 2010 by Grant Rudloff, Richard Kenyon, and Richard Doyle as an independent firm of chartered accountants and business advisers serving owner-manager businesses, SMEs, and individuals across Yorkshire.

They have built an outstanding practice with a talented team that focuses on long-term client relationships backed by excellent service delivery, and we are delighted that they are now part of our wider group.

Alistair Hayward-Wright, Director and Head of Acquisitions, had this to say about this exciting news:

“This is an exciting new chapter for the Hayward Wright group as we expand our footprint and presence beyond the Midlands and into Leeds and the wider Yorkshire region. Merging with like-minded practices across the UK is a key part of our strategic growth plan, and from the outset, we knew that Auker Rhodes was a great fit.”

Please join us in welcoming Grant, Richard, Richard, and their team to Hayward Wright.
