Don’t wait until January ‼️

Leaving everything until January means you may not know how much you owe until very close to the payment deadline.

Getting your tax return completed earlier means you can find out what your tax bill is likely to be in advance, giving you time to budget for it and deal with any queries or missing information.

MPH Summer Event 2026 ☀️🚣

This year, the team headed to to put our teamwork (and creative skills!) to the test by building rafts from scratch before taking to the water. 🌊

Safe to say one design was slightly more seaworthy than others, while the other raft decided two of its teammates were better off swimming back! 🏊‍♂️

A brilliant afternoon of laughs, friendly competition and team bonding ending with a lovely lunch at

Running a business can often feel overwhelming with the long hours, constant decision-making, and the pressure to keep everything moving forward. But what if you had a business coach by your side, helping you work smarter, not harder? 🙌

At MPH Accountants, our quarterly business mentoring is designed to do exactly that.

We recently received this fantastic feedback from one of our clients:

“Working with MPH Accountants through their quarterly business mentoring has been one of the best decisions I’ve made for my business.

Their guidance has helped me significantly increase my profits while actually reducing the number of hours I work.

What I value most is having a fantastic sounding board — they listen, understand my challenges, and offer practical, actionable ideas that make a real difference.

Each session gives me fresh strategies and things to implement that keep my business moving in the desired direction.

MPH Accountants have become invaluable in my growth, and I highly recommend their mentoring to any business owner looking to improve performance and gain clarity.”

The goal isn’t just to grow your business, it’s to help you build a business that works for you. One that is more profitable, more efficient, and less stressful to run. 📈

Could This Be Right for You?

If you’re feeling stuck, working too many hours, or unsure how to take your business to the next level, business mentoring could be the difference.

National Living Wage Increase from April 2026 📊

From April 2026, the National Minimum Wage will increase, meaning higher earnings for many workers across the UK.

While this is positive for employees, businesses may also see increased payroll costs due to higher wages, employer National Insurance and pension contributions.

Now is a good time for business owners to review staffing costs, pricing structures and overall profitability ahead of the changes.

If you would like help planning for these changes, please contact a member of the team on 01227 277667 and we will be happy to help. 📞
