Join us at the Summer Shows 2024

Summer is just round the corner and we are delighted to be supporting both the Haddington Show and the Border Union Show once again this year.

The Haddington Show – Saturday 29 June
GWA has a longstanding relationship with The Haddington Show and we are proud to be joint main sponsor of this great event again. This year we are joint sponsor with Turcan Connell. The show has been run by the United East Lothian Agricultural Society since 1804 and will be taking place at the East Fortune Race Circuit on the last Saturday in June. It is a super day out with entertainment, a food market, vintage machinery and livestock and equestrian events.

So, drop by for a chat, maybe a hog roast roll or some refreshments. You’ll find us in the sponsors’ marquee just by the main ring.

The Border Union Show – Friday 26 and Saturday 27 July
The Border Union Show is one of the highlights of the agricultural calendar for the Scottish Borders and Northumberland. It may be a traditional farming show with livestock parades and competitions and rural skills demonstrations but it also has over 175 trade stands, a food fair, a craft tent and a children’s fun fair. Come and join us for our traditional hog roast rolls on Friday and refreshments on both days.

Nearer the time, we will send out invitations with further information. In the meantime, make sure you have the dates in your diary.
You can find out more and buy tickets by visiting Haddington Show and Border Union Show websites.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Spring Statement 2025 – Review

Yesterday, Chancellor Rachel Reeves delivered her Spring Statement. We have sifted through the details and hope the following review, which we feel will be the most significant to our clients, will be helpful.

HMRC to close their online accounts and tax filing service

HMRC have issued guidance confirming that from 31 March 2026 their online filing service for company accounts and tax returns will close.

Side hustle sales threshold raised to £3,000

Further information has been released by the Government on the increase in the trading allowance rate and when this will come into effect, but beware; the £3,000 is not a tax relief increase, only an administrative increase.

What happens if you can’t pay your tax bill?

If you are a taxpayer and you are concerned that you cannot pay your tax bill on time, you have the option to set up an online “time to pay” arrangement with HMRC.  This means you can spread the cost of you tax bill over a period of 6-12 months, helping improve cash flow.
