WEBINAR: YOUR GUIDE TO UK INHERITANCE TAX
Inheritance Tax is one of the biggest tax bills many people will face. It’s therefore important to take time to consider who you want to inherit your wealth and personal effects, and how to pass them on in the most tax-efficient way.
In this webinar, Peter Webb, Head of Tax Advisory at The Fry Group will discuss the proactive tax planning steps you can take to safeguard your wealth for your chosen beneficiaries rather than HMRC.
What can I learn from this webinar?
- Who Inheritance Tax affects
- How is Inheritance Tax charged
- Understanding the Nil Rate Band
- Inheritance Tax on gifts
- Simple ways you can reduce your Inheritance Tax bill
There will also be plenty of opportunity for Q&A.
Two sessions are available to suit your time zone. Please choose the most suitable and register online to receive the webinar link.
Wednesday 29 June 2022:
Session 1: UK 6am, Europe 7am, Dubai 9am, Singapore/Hong Kong 1pm

KIT
As rugby and touch get back into the swing of things, with the lifting of the restrictions from the past two years, we are very excited to be taking part in many tournaments and friendly games with our fellow junior clubs. If your team is taking part in games, we would kindly ask that you ensure that your child is wearing their full and up-to-date kit. They must wear the latest playing jersey/touch top that they were given which have our sponsors latest logos on them. Please keep the old tops with the old logos just for training.
Our sponsors have generously stood by us during the past 2 years, and we need to honour their contribution and support by wearing the tops that they have sponsored for us.
WEATHER UPDATES
With the recent rainy conditions, please make sure you check our Facebook page for the status of training if there is heavy rain, and/or thunder and lightning.
