Claim conference cost as a business expense

Following clarification by HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC), NCMA is pleased to confirm that by attending the annual conference, it is recognised that the childminders will be updating their skills, knowledge and expertise.

 

Therefore, the cost of travelling to, and the cost of attendance at the annual conference is allowable as a business expense. However, this excludes the cost of any overnight stays required.

 

NCMA's annual conference will be taking place in Bristol at The Royal Marriott Hotel on Friday 12 and Saturday 13 November 2010. The conference will have a mix of plenary sessions, fun and interactive workshops combined with the opportunity to take part in the annual policy debate which will help shape NCMA's future work.

 

There will also be an opportunity for delegates to network with colleagues, meet with old friends and make new ones from across England and Wales.
