Welcome A very warm welcome to the June 2013 edition of the Rayleigh Local Business Guide.

As we enter the Summer season, I am always reminded of holidays in Cornwall with delicious Cornish Cream Teas. However, you do not have to travel out of Essex to find the perfect Cream Tea. We feature 4 great Cream Teas in Essex for you to enjoy (page 6). We also have our regular ‘What’s on in Rayleigh’ feature on page 18 to get you out and about in the local area.

We also have our regular local community feature on the Acres Way Kennels, based in Castle Point. The dogs we featured last time, Dexter the Doberman and Coco the cross have both been re-homed successfully! This month we are featuring 2 new dogs, Cleo the Lurcher and Max the Staffy in the hope that we can find more loving homes (pages 10-11).

In this edition we are also promoting 2 events that hope to raise funds for good charities - the Rayleigh Rotary Club Charity Golf Tournament (page 8) and a Family Shopping Event at The Mill Hall Rayleigh (page 19). In our article on the History of Rayleigh we feature the Parish Church of Holy Trinity (page 16).

We also have our regular financial column from our financial expert Martin Lamb from Joseph R Lamb Independent Financial Advisors (see centre pages).

This month also sees the formal launch of our brand new innovative website www.businesscard-directory.co.uk . Our readers can now find the contact details and location of all your local businesses in a straight forward and easy format with direct links into the business’s own website. Have look a good look at the new website the details of which can be found on the back page and the inside back cover of this Rayleigh Guide. We’re sure that you will find the site clear and easy to use!

If you have any interesting stories about Rayleigh or if you are a local team, association or charity that would like to be featured in any future editions of the Local Business Guide then please drop us a line at: info@ thelocalbusinessguide.co.uk Have a great June!

Can you help Re-Home a Dog from Acres Way Kennels? 

Adopting a Dog

I

f you think you can offer a dog a good home, the first thing you need to do is to go down to the kennels, select a suitable dog you like, take it for a walk and see how you get on. Some people and dogs just don’t get along, so before reserving a dog, the Acres Way staff would need to see if you suit each other. If you have children, or another dog, they recommend that you bring them with you, to make sure that everyone will get on.

Dexter -

Once you have visited the dogs, and hopefully found one that matches your lifestyle and expectations, a member of staff will arrange a convenient time for a home check. These are usually carried out within 2 or 3 days of your visit and take about half an hour. Once the home check is complete, you’ll be able to collect your Breed: Doberman Age: 3-5 Successfully Rehomed dog.

THE LOCAL BUSINESS GUIDE WORKING FOR THE COMMUNITY

Money Guidance

by Martin Lamb Dip. PFS Certs C11 (MP & ER) , Pensions, Unit Trusts, ‘OEICS’, I SAs Bonds………… The world of investments can

be very confusing, and even intimidating. Each ‘vehicle’ has it’s own taxation rules, which may be more or less beneficial to you dependent on your own circumstances.

It is vital that you seek advice to make sure that your savings and investments are in the most tax efficient vehicles for you, and equally important to ensure that the investments within each vehicle are suitable.

An ISA for example can be a ‘cash’ ISA which simply puts your money on deposit, or a ‘stocks and shares’ ISA. The term ‘stocks and shares’ ISA is misleading, as there are many investments that you can place in one these that are not stocks and shares such as Property funds, Government and Corporate Bond funds, Overseas bonds funds and Commodity funds. You can, with advice, build a balanced portfolio of investments inside a Stocks and Shares ISA, or indeed a personal pension.

Whist it feels sensible to take little or no risk with the underlying investments, it is very important to understand how the world is changing and that taking little ‘risk’ with your savings could end up costing you dearly. At Joseph Lamb’s we believe that inflation will continue to increase, and don’t forget that the governments new ‘CPI’ inflation measure misleads. Have you filled your car up or a shopping trolley lately? We are all experiencing inflation running much higher than the official figure. In the meantime interest rates are now almost certain to remain at or around these alltime lows for years to come as the Government has to keep borrowing costs down, or we are all doomed!

So whilst it may appear that leaving money in 14

‘safe havens’ such as cash or Government Bonds is the right thing to do, inflation will almost certainly erode it’s value very significantly. We have lost track of how many clients we have who retired ten or more years ago and are now feeling the pinch.

If you want your money to deliver an income, then inflation is an even bigger problem as if you spend your interest the remaining capital balance becomes worth less and less very quickly.

Only by investing some of your money in ‘real assets’ do you stand any chance of beating inflation going forwards. It may appear that ‘Investments’ are not delivering, but that is simply not the case, the returns since 2004 in our Medium risk portfolios are up to 8.13% pa, including the impact of the 2008 crisis, and have been performing more strongly than that recently. The world is changing, and still growing, but the relative importance of ‘The West’ is declining and any investment portfolio should reflect this. You can only invest in this growth by using a diverse portfolio not by leaving your money on deposit or in Cash ISAs, which can be transferred to Stocks and Shares ISAs. Inflation doesn’t stop when you retire! It must be allowed for in your retirement planning and you must look further down the road than age 65. Many of us will live longer in retirement than we earned a good living for……….this means we will all need more savings behind us than we imagine. Start now, tomorrow will be too late!

And seek proper advice from acknowledge advisers with a long term track record!

Rayleigh History Parish Church of Holy Trinity.

R

esidents of the Rayleigh Parish have been worshipping at the site of the Holy Trinity Church since long before the current church was built. The present building was built between 1380 and 1420 but was preceded by a Norman church and it is believed by local historians that there was an even earlier small wooden church on the site.

The main feature of the church is its splendid tower reaching up 70ft high. The tower dates from the 15th Century and carries eight bells, the last two of which were hung in 1897. It is built from Kentish rag-stone - a material that has been used extensively throughout the building. The tower incorporates stones that were taken from the castle when it fell into disuse. The top of the tower affords

a splendid view in all directions over the surrounding countryside. It is often open to visitors on Bank Holidays.

Entrance to the church is though a sturdy, red brick porch which was added in Tudor times and has been used in the past as both a schoolroom for the village children and a refuge for vagrants.

Over the years, several major restoration programmes have been undertaken as the church became dilapidated. The main periods of restoration were between 1795, 1842-43 and 1912-13.

In 1976, a new church hall was built to replace the old parish room (which is now the restaurant that you can see in front of the church) and in 1995, the new hall was connected to the church with the opening of the Parish Centre by way of the Link Corridor which holds a splendid suite of rooms and offices.

the art of accountancy

Is your accountant right for you?

It is the start of a new tax year and one that sees many changes with Real Time information (RTI) for payrolls, universal credits and cash accounting for the self employed.

It is a time when many consider their business structure, tax efficiency and planning for the year ahead. As part of this review they may change accountants having been disappointed with the previous years tax return and a lack of advice regarding changes to legislation, and the effect on them. The question though is how do you know that you are not just going to end up in the same position or worse?

Choosing an accountant is an important decision and you need to find one that matches your needs, you feel comfortable with, can trust and whose fee levels are fair.

We've produced the following checklist to help you choose and get the most from your accountant.  Understanding. Get an accountant you can speak to openly and honestly that you understand and who understands you.  Will Visit You. Ask them if they will visit you for an initial consultation free of charge. Why do you have to spend time travelling, find parking and wait around for them when they are trying to get your business?  Gives Tax Ideas. Ask them what tax ideas they have for you.

You want an accountant who will pro-actively come up with regular new ideas.
