Small businesses and taxpayers on the south coast can now benefit from the experience and expertise of Emma Lodge, who has opened a new TaxAssist Accountants office at Arena Business Centre, Lancaster Court, 8 Barnes Wallis Rd, Fareham PO15 5TU.

Emma said: “I have lived and raised a family in the Solent area for twenty years and know many of the small business owners in the area due to my former role as Finance Director of a large family business.

“I feel my previous experience gives me an insight into the dynamics and some of the problems owners face at this time. I’m passionate about providing a first-class service and know I can make a real difference by supporting clients with strategic decisions for their future.

“TaxAssist offers clients a full range of services, including self-assessment tax returns, year-end accounts, payroll and bookkeeping, as well as R&D tax credits, employment law, business-starts ups and debt recovery. We also offer advisory services, assisting with business planning and cash flow management, using the latest software, with all the time saving and efficiencies this brings.

“In addition, TaxAssist Financial Services can help clients to raise finance, protect their business and loved ones, maximise their return on pensions and investments and plan for the future in a tax efficient manner.

“I’d encourage anyone interested in finding out more about our services to contact me for a free initial consultation. I’m happy to meet with clients at their convenience if they give me a call on 01329 623103 or I can be contacted via my website www.taxassist.co.uk/park-gate .”
