We've picked a selection of links to other sites that we hope you will find useful as an information resource.
Some of the sites were included because we have links with that organisation. Some were chosen because we anticipate that many of our own website visitors would be interested. Many are used by the Parkes team on a regular basis. And some we just think are nice sites.
www.acca.co.uk
The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants website. Includes member services, resources, training and qualification details and more
www.accountingweb.co.uk
AccountingWeb hosts a huge virtual community for accountants and accounting professionals. The site includes everything from useful content (some free, some pay to view) to humour
www.adviserplus.com
AdviserPlus Business Solutions is a human resources, tax and health & safety solutions specialist and web content provider. Parkes enjoys a close working relationship with AdviserPlus
www.berr.gov.uk
Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform - formerly the DTI. Find out about current trading legislation, employment law and other issues affecting British industry
www.britishchambers.org.uk
Find out what local Chambers of Commerce are doing for British business. The website includes latest news and information
www.cch.co.uk
CCH, major tax and law publishers and distributors of CCH Business Focus
www.flightline.co.uk
Flightline is a 'cheap flights' website run by an Essex based travel agency. Unlike many such sites, it doesn't waste your time - the search tools are excellent and all of the flights actually seem to exist. Tried, tested and recommended. You can't work all the time...
www.fsb.org.uk
The Federation of Small Businesses is the voice of small business in the UK, lobbying on their behalf and providing a forum for debate and information exchange
www.google.co.uk
Google is still the best mainstream internet search engine in our opinion - at Parkes we've used it since the days when hardly anyone had heard of it and we still use it every day. Still a nice simple interface
www.hmrc.gov.uk
HM Revenue & Customs - a huge website and a good source of information of tax and VAT matters
www.icaew.co.uk
The Institute of Chartered Accountants in England & Wales website. Training, resources, member services and more
www.metoffice.gov.uk
The authoritative source for information about what the weather may or may not be like tomorrow. Do those five day forecasts tend towards optimism?
www.ndbc.noaa.gov/Maps/England.shtml
Up to date wave height, wind direction and other sea state data for the British Isles. Useful for sailors, surfers, oceanographers and the terminally bored-at-work, almost totally useless for everyone else...
www.statistics.gov.uk
The official web site of the Office for National Statistics (ONS). The site is deceptively large and, with some searching, contains pretty much every piece of data that is produced by the ONS. An excellent resource
www.gnn.gov.uk
The Government News Network (GNN) website. Central resource for news releases from all government departments and agencies
