I really benefitted from the Forward Ladies half-day training I went on last week; “Your Money and How to Hang on To It”.
The trainer was financial planning expert Flora Maudsley-Barton of Parsonage Group supported by Amanda Turpin of Mitchell Charlesworth - and I now know what I ‘m doing about my tax return!
This dry subject was lifted by Flora encouraging all us trainees to share life and business objectives, reminding us to tie our financial aspirations closely to them. Amongst Forward Ladies trust emerges and we were all candid. We know money is not an end in itself, but it was good to have an expert tell us!
From that strong start, the course went on to illuminate financial records, bookkeeping and basic tax allowances. We laughed together at our foibles and errors – at least we can now nip them in the bud! Valuable tips on how to keep the admin part of our efforts as straightforward as possible have already freed up time for me to write this! The investment and planning advice from Flora was great. I don’t know about you but my foresight is often blinded by a pea-soup of financial terminology and figures.
This training will be repeated in September – and I can’t recommend it enough.
