Brett Nicholls Associates

Happy New Year to you all! We're back in the office after a lovely break, be sure to come see us for all your accounting needs for the year.

Today is our last day in the office, and we want to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year when it comes. We'll be back in the office bright and early on the 7th of January, and until then we'll be enjoying the festive holidays!

Our client Antonine Court kindly let us have a wander round their centre in Drumchapel and have a chat about their excellent work in the community. Check out their video here: https://brettnichollsassociates.co.uk/… /12/12/antoninecourt/
If you'd like to donate some of your time or another contribution then email admin@antonine.org to get involved!

We're in the office for one more week before we close for the Christmas holidays. If you want to organise anything with us before then, be sure to come see us while we're still open!

We've written a new blog to help guide your business spending for the festive period! Read on for insight into how HMRC will help you throw a party: https://brettnichollsassociates.co.uk/… /festive-spending-f…/

With the Christmas tree now up in the office, the Christmas season is definitely upon us! Now to find some mince pies...

Today marks not only #NationalCookieDay, but also the 9 year anniversary of Brett Nicholls Associates! So, of course, today we celebrated our 9 years of accounting with cookies.

Made it! Sort of. Got to the bottom of Church Street and the heavens opened. So we scarpered back to Nic's NYC Deli & Donuts for some shelter....and donuts

Nifty wee sign put up today - thanks Jamie, Innes and Craig (team effort)👌 Exactaprint

This great competition is running until the 31st of December! Be sure to take your phone or camera and have a wander around Byres Road - and the surrounding lanes - to be in for a chance of winning a Visit West End Gift Card!

While we're almost a week on from #StressAwarenessDay, being aware of stress doesn't always translate to beating it. So we thought we'd share some tactics to deal with stress, featured in one of Brett's favourite magazines from his home in New Zealand: http://ow.ly/sdQV50jEL2T

On #InternationalAccountancyDay we remember the father of accounting, Luca Pacioli, who famously said that a person should not go to sleep at night until their debits and credits are equal. Luckily, times have moved on from 1494, and now you can sleep while BNA do your accounts!

With #LivingWageWeek coming to an end, we are proud to have been an accredited @LivingWageScot employer for over a year!
