Blue Stockings Women's Business Network: Get Ready for Making Tax Digital
Making Tax Digital is coming — but it doesn’t have to be confusing. Join us for an informal, friendly session designed to help women in business understand what Making Tax Digital (MTD) really means and how to get prepared with confidence.
This practical session is in plain English so you can understand, be organised, compliant, and in control of your business finances. Whether you’re brand new to digital record‑keeping or just want to make sure you’re on the right track, you’ll leave feeling clearer and more confident.
We’ll cover:
- What Making Tax Digital actually means
- Key deadlines and when the changes will affect you
- The advantages of using digital accounting software
- Examples of both free and paid‑for software options
- Basic record‑keeping and how to stay organised
- Recommended next steps
Expect a relaxed atmosphere, opportunities to ask questions, and practical tips.
There will also be an opportunity to share information and offers from your business.
This is a hybrid event so you can join us on-line or in-person at the Createry in Nottingham. We understand it can be easier and more convenient to join on-line but we are missing seeing you in the flesh! So come to the Createry if you can, where there will be home made cake, fruit and a drink and other lovely women to meet. It's a great opportunity to find out more about what people do, enjoy chance conversations and re-energise off-line.
Of course if you can't attend in person, we'd be delighted If you join us online. We will send you the link to join us on zoom the day before the meeting.
