The Budget 2026: What are the key announcements, and what do they mean for your business?

The Chancellor’s announcements could have implications for everything from your wage bill and business rates to tax relief and future investment plans.

Here are some of the key changes and dates to keep on your radar:

📌 Energy support: Eligible households will receive a £100 payment from January 2027, with the VAT cut on electricity extended to July 2027.

📌 National Minimum Wage: From 1 April 2027, the National Living Wage will rise by 3.9% to £13.21 per hour. The rate for 18–20-year-olds will also increase by 3.9% to £11.27 per hour.

📌 Capital allowances: Changes to capital allowances could affect the tax relief available on qualifying business expenditure.

📌 Business rates: From 1 April 2027, qualifying retail, hospitality and leisure businesses in England will benefit from changes to Small Business Rate Relief thresholds.

📌 Capital Gains Tax: From 6 April 2027, the lifetime limit for Business Asset Disposal Relief will fall from £1 million to £500,000.

📌 Founders’ Relief: A new Capital Gains Tax relief has been announced for founders and significant early investors in high-growth, innovative UK companies.

📌 Self-employed trading allowance: From 6 April 2027, the allowance will increase from £1,000 to £3,000.

📌 Cash ISAs: The annual allowance will remain at £20,000.

But what do these announcements actually mean for you?

Understanding the changes is one thing. Knowing how they could affect your cash flow, tax position, staffing costs and plans for growth is another.

That’s why we’re bringing local business leaders together for our Budget 2026 – Wrexham Business Briefing at Hotel Wrexham on Wednesday 4 November, 9–11am.

☕ Join us for a FREE networking breakfast, expert analysis, discussion and practical takeaways to help you decide what to do next.
We want to hear what matters to your business, answer your questions and help you make sense of the announcements.

Come and see us next Wednesday, or get in touch if you’d like to discuss how the Budget could affect your business.

💬 Strategic advice around your table

For many business owners, having access to the right advice at the right time can make all the difference.

This testimonial perfectly captures what we aim to provide at The Uncommon Practice: a space where business owners feel heard, understood and supported by specialists who genuinely take the time to understand their ambitions.

We believe great accountancy helps business owners look forwards, not backwards. Alongside compliance, we provide strategic insight and management information that helps clients make confident decisions for the future.

We love being described as “a board meeting of my own company, with specialists around the table” – because that’s exactly the kind of relationship we want to build with our clients.
