Financial Planning

The Financial Planning pages provide information about some of the key tools that you will need to help you plan and manage your business finances.

These pages provide some high level information about budgeting, cashflow forecasting, profit and loss accounts and the balance sheet along with links to the national information website www.gov.uk where you can go to read more detailed information about these tools and more.

This section also includes some interesting case studies which illustrate how these tools have been used to help businesses.

If you need one to one help with Financial Planning, search our local contacts list| or see the Local Finance Support Scheme| pages. ACCA (the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants) also offers some useful business finance guides on it's website.
