Shorts Chartered Accountants is delighted to announce that the firm’s Sheffield Chamber of Commerce Patronage has been renewed for a sixth consecutive year.

The Sheffield Chamber of Commerce has been an integral part of the Sheffield business community for over 150 years, providing connections, support, and representation for businesses across the city. Shorts’ longstanding collaboration with the Chamber continues to represent the valuable synergy between the Chambers of Commerce and local business.

“We have enjoyed a fantastic relationship with the Sheffield Chamber of Commerce team as patrons over the last five years and are delighted to renew our patronage for a sixth year. Both Shorts and the Chamber are committed to providing essential support for businesses in and around Sheffield, especially throughout this challenging economic period for many local companies.”

The Shorts team takes pride in offering the most relevant and timely advice and support for Sheffield Chamber members. In particular, Shorts are focused on ensuring local businesses are able to take full advantage of government-backed tax reliefs, such as R&D, which can make such an important difference for innovative businesses.

"We are thrilled that Shorts have renewed their Patronage with Sheffield Chamber for the seventh consecutive year. And we look forward to working in partnership with them over 2022. Our mission is to lead the way in making Sheffield the best place in the UK to do business and our Patrons play a pivotal role in driving this mission forward.

"Not only are Shorts a Chamber Patron, they are also our key delivery partner for our Research and Development Tax Credit service. Over the years, many of our members have used Shorts expertise and support to claim generous tax savings for their research and development projects. This is just one of many areas the award-winning team at Shorts can offer support and expertise to businesses."
