Howard Worth are running two breakfast seminars to discuss the Chancellor’s Pre-Budget Report.
With less than six months until a general election and the economy still in recession, this year’s report has been widely anticipated and they invite you to join them in order that their Tax and Finance Team can outline how the announcements will affect your business.
There are two opportunities to attend a seminar:
15th December – Wychwood Suite, Wychwood Park Golf Club, CW2 5GP.
16th December – Drake House, Gadbrook Park, Northwich, CW9 7RA.
Registration will commence at 8:00am, with a light breakfast being served. At 8:30am the presentations will begin and they aim for a 9:30am departure after questions.
A lively presentation usually gets the day off to a good start and they are sure this will be up to their usual standard!
To reserve your place please email your reservations to Allison Vidler at events@howardworth.co.uk or telephone 01606 369000.
