As companies up and down the UK continue to struggle with escalating inflation and economic uncertainty, Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak has been warned that time is running out to put together the financial support package that would save ‘UK plc’ from a “perfect storm” of potentially catastrophic circumstances.

“They need to put in place support for businesses now”

As reported by The Guardian and elsewhere, British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) director general…

The short answer to this common question about life insurance is, yes. Certainly, from a legal standpoint, there are no rules preventing you from having more than one active life insurance policy at any given time. So, you are allowed to have multiple such policies, whether you have them from the same life insurance provider, or even with different companies.

But it’s one thing to know that you technically and legally can have several life insurance policies, and quite another thing to…

Much of the beauty of Gibraltar weddings is that they really can take an exceedingly wide range of forms. And that might be even more the case if you are a same-sex couple looking to tie the knot, given that there are a lot of long-time wedding traditions that were conceived in the first place with opposite-sex nuptials in mind, and which you will be able to ditch for your own special day, if you wish.

Or should you ditch them? After all, there are some old-time traditions from the…

The continued importance and relevance of carpentry skills simply cannot be doubted. Carpentry is a time-honoured skilled trade that entails such routinely essential work as the construction of furniture and fittings, repair and renewal work, and a variety of other woodworking projects.

There are, then, a lot of opportunities in carpentry in the Britain of today. But do you possess the qualifications that would enable you to take advantage of those opportunities – or more specifically,…

What a frenzied and bruising year it’s been – and no less for businesses, which are continuing to face a wide range of stresses, from staff shortages to escalating costs. When you add the obligation for Christmas preparations on top of all that… well, it’s understandable that many business owners might feel overwhelmed by the wealth of responsibilities in front of them.

So, for today’s blog post, we aren’t outlining simply the most obvious things a business can do to ready itself for…

It might seem odd in some ways for us to suggest that much friction would necessarily arise between a search engine optimisation (SEO) expert and a graphic designer over the course of a website overhaul they are both working on. After all, they are surely working towards a shared goal of creating a more impactful and successful online presence for their client, and both SEO and graphic design will play crucial roles in the effectiveness of your own brand’s digital marketing online.…

We’re coming up to that time of year again… no, not Christmas preparations, or even necessarily ‘Dry January’, but a phenomenon that – at least if you’re doing things ‘by the calendar’ – you can get involved in right now.

Yes, we are, of course, referring to ‘Sober October’. As recently reported by The Independent, Sober October isn’t new as such – having been established by Macmillan Cancer Support in 2014, and gone on to help raise more than £33 million for the charity.

And…

In our previous blog post here at London Registrars, we wrote about the significance and role of a process agent service, including what a process agent is, in what circumstances it might be needed, and who can act as a process agent.

Turning to part two of our guide, we will answer more of our readers’ and clients’ pressing questions, so that you can be sure of only making the most informed decisions for your own organisation’s requirements.

It’s one of the first things that you are likely to pay attention to after becoming the owner of a Spanish property, and quite rightly so; making sure everything is in order as far as the insurance you have in place for the property is concerned.

Of course, if you are an expatriate from somewhere like the United Kingdom or United States, there is a slight difference to be concerned about, in that you might have never taken out a home insurance policy in Spain, and not every aspect of…

What Is it? And What Can You Expect?

The Pilates reformer is quite a daunting thing when you first lay your eyes on it. A mind-boggling mishmash of straps, springs, cushions and blocks, it kind of resembles a medieval torture device. But the reformer is far from a torture device. To understand its longstanding place in the practice you have to go right back to the very beginning.

Pilates was developed by a German man called Joseph Pilates. During the second world war Pilates was…

Actionable Intelligence - All you need to do is switch on the news to hear about the strain the NHS is currently experiencing. There are multiple reasons for this, including our aging population, the persisting impact from Brexit and the continuing pressures from the COVID19 pandemic.

We know that ~25% of the health and social care work force are due to retire within the next 10 years and in the next ten years we will need ~27% more staff than today. That leaves a potential gap in the…

If there’s one thing you might feel you’ve seen a little bit too much of since you first started planning your nuptials, it’s ‘to-do’ lists – especially if you’re a regular reader of blogs about organising weddings, such as this one!

But here at Sweet Gibraltar Weddings, we do think it is worth underlining the point that even after actually getting married in Gibraltar, there will still be important work to do for you and your sweetheart.

So, what are some of those things you…

The ongoing - and intensifying - cost-of-living crisis is likely to have taught you many things, and one of those will surely be how invaluable a thing it is to have a steady income. As our incomes come under ever-greater pressure, and in many cases will have barely kept pace with inflation, you might be anxiously looking over your long-term financial commitments, and you may be wondering what you can do to keep on top of them.

For this blog post, let’s focus on just one such commitment…

HM Revenue & Customs released its data concerning the ‘tax gap’ for the 2020 to 2021 tax year. The non-ministerial department said that the estimated ‘tax gap’ – defined as the difference between the total amount of tax expected to be paid and the total amount of tax actually paid during the financial year – was 5.1%.

This percentage is the second lowest the HMRC has published since it began providing tax-gap estimates from the 2005 to 2006 financial year. It is also the exact…

We cannot, of course, pretend that we will ever be truly living in a “post-COVID-19” world; nonetheless, we are living in a world in which there has been a noticeable sensibility change around the virus. If the coronavirus pandemic has not exactly “gone”, the picture has certainly altered considerably amid the lifting of previous restrictions and rules designed to minimise the spread of illness.

And it is certainly important to acknowledge that – as invaluable as digital experiences at…

Indeed, you might have landed on this page specifically because you are seeking out corporate event catering services like thoseTPM Catering can provide.

On 8th September 2022, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II – who reigned over the United Kingdom and other Commonwealth realms for more than 70 years – passed away.

During a time of already marked transition in the UK and across its territories, including the appointment of a new Prime Minister, the news sparked an outpouring of grief, but also gratitude for everything the long-reigning monarch represented for admirers in Britain and around the globe.

Those remembrances have also been…

Have you yet started to formulate a coherent Web3 strategyfor your own brand? The chances are that for many, their answer to that question will be a flat “no”. However, some inspiration may be forthcoming from the latest step taken by the men’s magazine, GQ, into the metaverse.

As reported by the fellow Condé Nast-owned title, Vogue Business, GQ has made the decision to establish a presence on the social platform Discord. But what are the reasons for this, and what can we expect from…
