Our registered office is at 45 Shortmead Street, Biggleswade, Bedfordshire SG18 0AT. This is a notice to tell you our policy about all information that we record about you. It covers both information that could identify you and information that could not. We are extremely concerned to protect your privacy and confidentiality. We understand that all users of our website are quite rightly concerned to know that their data will not be used for any purpose unintended by them, and will not accidentally fall into the hands of a third party. Our policy is both specific and strict. It complies with UK law and with the laws of all jurisdictions of which we are aware. If you think our policy falls short of your expectations or that we are failing to abide by our policy, do please tell us. We regret that if there are one or more points below with which you are not happy, your only recourse is to leave our website immediately. Except as set out below, we do not share, or sell, or disclose to a third party, any personally identifiable information collected at this site. Here is a list of the information we collect from you, either through our website or because you give it to us in some other way, and why it is necessary to collect it: 1. Basic identification and contact information, such as your name and contact details. This information is used: 1.1. to provide you with the services which you request; 1.2. for verifying your identity for security purposes; 1.3. for marketing our services and products; 1.4. information which does not identify any individual may be used in a general way by us or third parties, to provide class information, for example, relating to demographics or usage of a particular page or service. 2.

Note on padlock symbols and other trust marks Many companies offer certification and an icon or other small graphic to prove to site visitors that the site is safe. Some certify to a high level of safety. Others are more concerned to take our money than to provide a useful service.

![]() BIG RISE IN FIRMS ON BRINK There has been a record rise in UK businesses in severe financial distress as companies find it almost impossible to navigate the challenges they face according to an insolvency specialist. The number of businesses showing signs of critical stress rose by 50.2% quarter on quarter to 46853 in the final three months of 2024.Begbies Traynor said. Its red flag alerts showed that construction companies were facing the most significant challenges with 6830 businesses showing signs of critical distress. Consumer sectors also reported a jump of 76% in financial for the leisure sector and 48% in general retailing. UNEMPLOYMENT RISES The number of job vacancies has fallen to its lowest level in more than three years and unemployment has risen signalling that businesses reined in hiring after Rachel Reeves October budget. Wages also accelerated to a six month high before the Bank of England next interest meeting. Figures from the Office for National Statistics showed that the number of vacancies fell by 24000 to 81200 in the three months to December from the previous quarter the lowest volume since the three months to May 2021 BUSINESS FAILURES HIT 30 YEAR HIGH Business failure hit a 30 year high of 25,158 last year as owners struggled to keep up with interest rates, rising costs and customers cutting spending. That may rise this year, with the Centre for Economics and Business Research forecasting that 33,000 companies will fail, but official figures suggested the upward annual trend may have peaked. COSTS THREATEN ZOMBIE FIRMS Tens of thousands of so- called "zombie" companies will fall prey to rising interest rates and inflation in the coming months according to the boss of Begbies Traynor. Ric Traynor, executive chairman of the insolvency specialist, predicted that highly indebted companies that have only managed to cling on thanks to cheap borrowing costs will fall over the next 18 months. |
