The Worshipful Company of Tax Advisers

A triumphant triumvirate of Tax Advisers secured the Company a richly deserved place amongst the ‘great XII’ (petanque-playing) livery companies … when they came joint 12th in the recent Inter-Livery Petanque Competition held at the London Petanque Club Ground at Battersea Pleasure Gardens. A full entry of 32 teams from across the City Livery entered […]

Lorraine Parkin, Chair of the Charities Committee, briefed assembled members of the Company on the Tax Advisers’ Benevolent Fund and the Tax Advisers’ Charitable Trust.

A group of Tax Advisers recently joined the Lord Mayor and Lady Mayoress’ Bavarian Ball at Mansion House.  We enjoyed a wonderful, Bavarian inspired evening of dining and entertainment.  The evening raised over £55,000 for the following charities: MQ Mental Health Research Homewards – a Royal Foundation programme, and National Numeracy.   Photo credit: PaulinaRootsPhotography.

It had been quite a number of years since members of the Company had been flying in a Voyager of 101 Squadron based at RAF Brize Norton, Oxfordshire, but the invitation in late May was of an entirely different nature to previous occasions: it extended over two days, and came from all the Squadrons and […]

I attended the Guildhall School of Music Voiceworks concert on Thursday 9 May, 2024 which was held to thank donors. The Tax Advisers’ Charitable Trust periodically  donates to this charity and has provided funds recently for the Guildhall’s young artists appeal. The concert covered the works of post -graduate composers, sung by post- graduate singers, supported […]

Aldgate East Underground station is something of an enigma: emerge from its depths, and you find yourself at a crossroads. Which way to turn? All the roads look the same. Yet all the dozen or so members of the Company, and their friends and relatives, managed (some perhaps with a little hesitation) to find their […]
