Beckbury Village Hall

Thank you so much for sharing your detailed taxation knowledge – on both VAT and direct taxes.  Your follow-up notes were comprehensive and helpful when feeding back to the other trustees. It’s great to know we can come back to you if we have any additional questions, and as the project moves forward.

The excellent VAT webinar which you delivered to members of the European Relocation Association (EuRA), brought clarity to some challenging tax issues for our members and their feedback on the session has been very positive.

Gordan Kerr

EuRA

The Henderson Loggie VAT team provided detailed training on VAT – and particularly partial exemption – for our accounts team.  Their presentation was bespoke to us, to meet our specific needs and questions and ensured once we’d covered principles that we worked through the practical application to us.

Debby Smith

Edinburgh University Students’ Association

The initial feedback from participants was extremely positive, it was clearly perfectly pitched for the delegates, giving them absolutely what they needed to know without overwhelming them. We really benefitted from your straightforward presentation and the examples really put my mind at ease for our first VAT return completion.
