You look after your business, your clients, your deadlines… but who’s looking after you?

This Action on Stroke Month, we’re pausing to say something important – especially to small business owners:

Don’t ignore the signs.
Stress, long hours, skipped meals, no breaks… they all add up. And when you’re the engine behind your business, burnout or serious health issues like stroke aren’t just personal – they affect everything.

This month is a reminder to check in with your body. Take the walk. Log off early. Know the warning signs. Prioritise your health as much as your hustle.

Running a business shouldn't mean running yourself into the ground. Let us lighten the load with reliable support:

Sole trader? You’ve got until 2026 to get ready for Making Tax Digital (MTD), but don’t leave
it to the last minute.

MTD for Income Tax Self Assessment is coming — and yes, it will affect you if:
✔ You’re a sole trader
✔ Your income is over £50,000 (from 2026), or £30,000+ from 2027
✔ You’re used to keeping paper records or using spreadsheets

This doesn’t mean panic. It just means start preparing now so the switch is smooth and
stress-free.

Here’s the one thing we recommending all sole traders do right now.

We recommend that you get onto cloud software, like Xero, Quickbooks or FreeAgent. No more shoeboxes or last minute
spreadsheets.

The sooner you start, the less daunting it’ll feel. And honestly, once you’re set up, it can
actually save you time and give you better visibility over your business.

Want a hand getting your systems MTD-ready? Let’s have a chat. https://heywoodmacdonald.co.uk/
