TaxAssist Accountants is hosting a Discovery Day on Tuesday 21st July 2026, from 10am to 3pm in Chester, offering prospective franchisees the chance to gain first‑hand insight into the business model, support structure and opportunities available within our nationwide network.
The event will be led by Group Director of Franchising, James Mattam, alongside Recruitment Manager Harry Brown and Head of Network Development, Samantha Skyring. Also in attendance will be local franchisee Gary Jacks, who will be available for questions and answers. Over two decades, Gary and his wife Cheryll have built and acquired several TaxAssist businesses, growing their practice into one of the largest in the network. They currently operate shops in Crewe, Sandbach, Ellesmere Port, Chester, Shrewsbury and Queensferry.
Throughout the day, the team will walk you through:
- How the TaxAssist business model works
- What you can expect to achieve as a practice owner
- Franchise joining packages
- The extensive support provided to help you build and grow a valuable, long‑term asset
Attendees will enjoy refreshments and lunch, with plenty of opportunity to ask questions and speak directly with our team.
“We are delighted to be showcasing our offering in Chester and look forward to meeting individuals who are interested in running their own tax and accountancy practice,” said James.
“In the North-West we currently have territory availability in Morecambe, Lancaster, Blackpool, Liverpool, Birkenhead, Knutsford, Macclesfield, St Helens, Rochdale, Warrington and Stoke-on-Trent as well as all of North Wales and much of South Yorkshire, Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire. We anticipate the day will prove to be popular and places will be limited, so booking is essential. Please follow this link as soon as possible to request attendance."
