About TaxAid

For tax advisers

TaxAid runs four conferences a year in central London on current tax issues with the small to mid-tier practitioner in mind. These conferences are presented by renowned speakers in the field of tax, who give their time free in order to help TaxAid. Income from these conferences enables TaxAid to continue its valuable work giving expert support to those in need.

The next conference will be on 18th May 2012 – details to follow.  For details of this conference (including a booking form), click here: Tax – The Facts!

Conference Notes (paper and electonic) are available for purchase after each conference. See Conference Notes for more information.

Voluntary Sector Conferences & Training

To complete our free online 2011-12 e-learning training programme, go to page  http://taxaid.org.uk/guides/e-learning-live.  The modules are organised by subject area (eg retirement, self-employment, tax credits) so you may find only one or two modules are appropriate in helping you with your clients.  There are seven modules in total and each will take about one hour to complete.

If you need more information, please email our Conference Manager, Karen Clark (karen@taxaid.org.uk) or call 020 7803 4950.

Our 2012/13 e-learning is being filmed now and will focus on the key problems clients come to advice agencies with, and how best to resolve these problems .

We also run occassional training sessions for voluntary sector advisors, based around our face-to-face advice locations.  These conferences are heavily subsidized and are either free or cost delegates a nominal attendance fee.  We also do occasional free  in-house training in these areas - we will advertise this when it is on offer.  In-house training at other times/locations can be arranged for a fee – again please contact our Conference Manager: karen@taxaid.org.uk.
