A bit more…
After running around after 2 young children and playing the housewife I am fortunate to have a great network of family and friends so weekends are often busy. I am also involved with the PTA at my children’s school and help organise and run the fund raising events. When I get some down-time I enjoy turning the music up loud or getting gripped by a good TV series.
…and what they say.
We strive to give our clients an excellent service
“I approached YFT recently to ask his advice on how to support my small business growth and improve the current Accounting operations. They have provided some excellent help and support, including a very comprehensive training session to show us how to use cloud accountancy software Xero to improve our productivity and reporting. It will make my life much easier. Thank you.”
