Report
Michelle at Helpbox was very supportive and professional during the tender process. She took the time to gain a thorough understanding of our club and what our requirements were going forwards, always taking the time out to take a call, answer questions, etc. Since signing up with Helpbox, we have been very impressed with their efficiency, professionalism and business support. What we lacked previously we now have. Andrew not only prepares and presents our quarterly accounts but he answers numerous queries regarding various topics to support the business. It is like having our very own FD only
