“The four years running up to the tribunal were extremely stressful for Tyne Valley, and it is a real shame that honest and hard-working businesses such as ours can be subject to such a long, drawn-out process. The costs would have severely limited our growth aspirations. Thankfully, common sense prevailed in the end, and I can’t thank the VAT team at UNW enough for their meticulous and dedicated approach to the tribunal. They were extremely supportive throughout the process, and I would recommend them to anyone else that found themselves in a similar position to ours.”

“With a very strong balance sheet, we had the desire to raise finance and capital to grow the business and were introduced to Paul Kaiser and the UNW Corporate Finance team to do an option analysis, who then provided us with a wide range of options. We eventually decided to go with the Business Growth Fund (BGF) and UNW led the process to a success conclusion. We eventually decided to enter an off-market deal with Novacap, a major French company. As managers, we needed to concentrate on the day-today running of the business and UNW’s support was invaluable. It’s been a fantastic working relationship!”

When selling my Dental practice UNW provided an expert and professional service giving wise counsel which I much appreciated. Alan Suggett of UNW also has detailed knowledge of the NHS superannuation pension scheme which I found invaluable as I moved into retirement
