‘IT’S BEEN
to be chairman for the last 14 years and I’m so proud of what EMW has become. All great things come to an end and it was important to me to step down as chairman while somewhere near the top of my game. I wish Nick the very best in his new role; being Chairman of EMW is a great privilege and I know that Nick understands this.” Nick joined the firm in 2000 and has been a

SEMINAR WILL TEACH YOU HOW TO MANAGE FINANCES
A new accountancy and bookkeeping firm are hosting a seminar in November on financial crisis management. Dynamic duo Annie Thompson (pictured top right)
and Tracey Walton (pictured bottom right), of facepalm management accounts, help small business owners use their numbers to make the right decisions at the right time and effectively act as a strategic partner to business owners. Their seminar - from 2pm until 6pm on 8 November
– will explain how to get processes correct from the start, avoid unmanageable cashflow problems and staff issues and give advice on how to fix a crisis. There will also be talks on IT and HR, as well as networking, drinks and a meal afterwards.
4 inbusiness OCTOBER/NOVEMBER 2019 Annie said: “We believe all business owners should
be able to understand their numbers and how to use them to grow their business, or spot problems before they become real problems. The process always begins with getting the basics right; the data. Without that bit, a business really has no idea where it stands or what decisions need to be made. Rubbish data in means rubbish data out. We are on a mission to fight against bad data and take your business's finances from facepalm to fist pump!”
Tickets for the event are £25 each. For more information contact
