Self employed business? Are you in the structure that is most tax efficient?

Reminder: The tax year has just ended (5 April) – now what?
If you're a small business owner or therapist, this is your moment to:
• Review last year’s finances
• Claim all allowable expenses (many people miss out!)
• Start planning early for your next tax bill
Waiting until January = stress.
Starting now = control and clarity.
We help sole traders and SMEs stay compliant and tax-efficient all year round—not just at deadline time.
Got questions about your tax return? Let’s chat.

Here's a quick win for this month: your home office.

If you see clients from home — or even just do your admin, notes, and billing there — a portion of your home costs can be legitimately claimed against your tax bill. Many therapists simply aren't claiming this, or aren't claiming enough.

A rough guide to home office claims
Work out what percentage of your home is used for work
Apply that percentage to eligible household bills — broadband, heating, electricity
Mortgage interest or rent can also qualify under certain conditions
That's money back in your pocket, compliantly claimed
Sounds straightforward, but the rules have nuances — and getting it right means more savings and no nasty surprises from HMRC.
