We assess your projects and expenses to determine whether your activities qualify for R&D tax relief, including work on new products, processes, or technologies.
We guide you through the entire claims process, collecting documents, preparing the paperwork, and submitting it to HMRC, so everything is handled correctly and with minimal hassle.
We work to ensure your claim includes all eligible costs and stays aligned with the latest R&D tax rules, helping you recover the full benefit and reinvest in innovation.
If your business is developing new products, processes, or software that involves some level of scientific or technological advancement, you may qualify. We’ll assess your eligibility in detail.
Qualifying expenses often include staff costs, subcontractor costs, software, and materials used in R&D. We’ll review your spending to maximise your claim.
The timeframe can vary, but HMRC usually processes claims within a few weeks to a couple of months. We ensure all paperwork is correct to avoid delays.
We’re here to help. Our team stays up-to-date with HMRC guidelines and will represent you in any queries or investigations, providing thorough documentation.
Absolutely. We frequently assist startups, guiding them through the complexities of R&D tax credit applications so they can reinvest in their growth.
Yes. You typically have up to two years after the end of your accounting period to submit a claim. We can help ensure your application is submitted in time.
Yes. HMRC recognises that not all R&D leads to success. As long as the work involved scientific or technological uncertainty, you may still qualify.
Not at all. Many small businesses and startups carry out eligible R&D within their main operations. What matters is the nature of the work, not the structure.
Yes, if you're within the two-year window, we can review and help you amend previous claims to include missed qualifying expenses.
We carry out a detailed review of your activities and costs, prepare technical narratives, and ensure the claim aligns with current HMRC criteria and best practices.
Jennie and her team at Red Fish are outstanding. They are our fourth set of accountants in 3 years and there is no point of comparison at all. Incredibly responsive, efficient, proactive and great value for money. I could not ask for more from the people managing our books!
We have been customers since 2014 and are very pleased with the professionalism of the whole team at Red fish accountancy. They are handling every aspect of our business payroll, book keeping, RnD tax return, and more. They have always gone above and beyond our expectations even when we asked for assistance on things out of their scope. Their response is very timely and they don’t leave any loose ends. I highly recommend them to anyone. We are in good hands.
Great work on bookkeeping and wider business and accounting issues from a very professional team.
RedFish has been accounting for Fontus Water Ltd since the company’s beginning in 2018.
The support and advice for “new start” companies has been invaluable in getting positioned for market entry, HMRC and neW start growth.
Very professional and diligent.

We have worked with Red Fish Accountancy since we launched our business in 2014 and they have been a great partner to us. They have acted as our accounts/finance function, so that we do not have to worry about that area of the business. Mandy and Jennie have been particularly responsive, and are very knowledgeable – it is fair to say that the whole team have been excellent to work with.
Redfish support our company and they do a great job. Would definitiely recommend to others looking for an outsourced accountancy and tax provider.
I have worked with Ollie (and Red Fish) for a few months now and I find his service, speed and attention to detail to be superb! We have regular communication and despite me being busy and not always quick to respond to him, Ollie stays on top of things and ensures the best possible service. I feel Red Fish is providing a quality, consultative approach which gives me peace of mind. Super service so far!
From my first meeting with Jennie, I have experienced nothing short of an earnest desire to meet our accounting needs.
We have been so fortunate to have Red Fish as our accountants. Their dedication, professionalism, and personalised approach shines through in every interaction.
Abbie’s meticulous attention to detail and commitment to delivering timely results is a godsend. Her commitment, good humour and patience, despite my occasional delays in communication, never waver. She and the team are super proactive, addressing any concerns before they even reach me and is always available on the end of the phone.
In my experience, it’s rare to find an accounting firm that not only does a phenomenal job but also takes the time to understand the nuances of your business and works tirelessly to accommodate your unique needs. Red Fish Accountants, with their customer-centric approach, unquestionably fall into this category.
Beyond just meeting my expectations, Red Fish has set a new standard for what I consider quality accounting services. The peace of mind knowing that our financial matters are in such capable and caring hands is priceless.
I have had nothing but great support from the whole team at Red Fish – I am very new to running a business, and their help and support at every corner has been invaluable.

We have been working with Red Fish since a friend recommended Jennie to us many years ago, and we couldn’t be happier with the change. They handle all our accounting needs, payroll, secretarial services, etc. Being able to fully delegate these tasks on them, and knowing they will be properly handled, has given us peace of mind, and allowed us to focus on the core of our business. This has made a massive difference. Thank you so much for all your help over the years!
My business has been using Red Fish Accountancy for over a year now and have been delighted with their service.

We can’t thank Red Fish Accountancy enough for the time and effort they put in answering our questions and being on hand when we need their help with our accounts, forms and endless queries. They have really helped us with lots of different things with our business and without them we wouldn’t have been able to grow our business like we have. So thank you Abi and Jennie for all you do to help us.
