Annual Wrap-up
Who would have predicted the events in 2020 that have affected everyone in the world?!
Referring to my notes in 2019 the item on our horizon was Brexit whilst COVID 19 was a virus in China that was not going to affect the UK – an isolated island!
How different the world and the UK is today with words like “furlough” and “tiers” now the norm. Whilst Brexit remains deal or no deal.
At Thompson Balch we have had a few changes too with Rachel and Kerry moving on and Liz and Brandon joining the team – both have been very supportive in this year of ever-challenging events.
Jodie who has been on maternity leave since February gave birth to Zak just before lockdown one.
Exam success has been curtailed due to the virus and exam sittings being postponed, however, in the latter months of the year both Henri and Brandon were able to sit and await exam results – Henri his Chartered Tax and Brandon his first AAT level 4 exam – whilst Elliot continues to make progress through level 3 of his AAT course.
We again are only a few weeks away from tax return deadline day – my own thoughts are that this will not be extended even with the expected changing tiers of lockdown areas – but as with most Government announcements we urge our clients to refer to the HMRC website for clear guidance.
As the world awaits the vaccine distribution 2021 remains uncertain for many and here at Thompson Balch we aim to continue supporting our clients in the best way we can and continue to offer “professional advice with a personal approach”.
Our office will be closed on Wednesday at 4pm and between Christmas and the New Year – back on the 4th January 2021.
It only remains for us all at Thompson Balch to thank all our clients and wish you all a safe Christmas - we look forward to seeing you all in 2021.

**END OF YEAR MESSAGE** 🎄🍷
Another year flies by and it has, again, been a pleasure working with you all in 2019; thank you!
What a year of uncertainty 2019 has turned out to be!! … Checking my notes from 2017, The “B” word was due to be resolved. Hopefully, rightly or not, this should now happen in 2020??!!
REFLECTION OF 2019 at THOMPSON BALCH
Whilst we said ‘goodbye’ to Rita in July, in August we said ‘hello’ to Elliot who joined us to progress his AAT qualification.
Jodie announced that she will be expecting her second child in early 2020 and we wish her well that all goes according to plan.
Rachel, Kerry, and Henri remain loyal and dependable members of the team, with Rachel diligently working towards making sure the team meets all deadlines and keeping the office ship-shape!
Kerry is approaching her final year of AAT and has continued to blossom with the additional responsibility of MTD.
Henri passed his final ACCA exams and will continue with his Chartered Tax qualification in 2020.
We look forward to helping you all face the New Year challenges starting with a reminder that the 2019 deadline for submitting your tax return is 31st January 2020.
Please do get in touch if you have any queries or haven’t filed your return yet! On a more personal note, Denise and I would like to send our hearty thanks to all the staff for their hard work and continued loyalty. It is very much appreciated; and to you, our customers, THANK YOU for your continued business with Thompson Balch. We are grateful for the trust that you show in the team!!
We wish you a peaceful Christmas and a Prosperous New Year,
– Shaun & Denise
