1. a good small business bank account provider, with a good, user-friendly app/online facility. Ideally, a free account to start with.

2. any useful publications for small business tax/finance advice.

3. good websites for new small business owners to read through

1. Most banks will have an app/online facilities. Theyve all got hteir own quirks but for the most part ive yet to use a banking app/online that isnt useable. As for the best, youll need to marry it up with your business. Theres normally some forms of costs involved, some accounts charge a monthly fee with everything else free, others will not charge a monthly fee but might have charges attached to certain payment types or limits on the account. Shop around is the answer here.

2. HMRC website. Anything you need to know about taxation you will find here. Specifically for business finances its difficult, there is a myriad of publications with various financial styles. Id say to this querstion mainly on HMRC websites but any business finance publications (news papers, articles, forums etc etc) will help improve your overall knowledge.

3. As above.


Id suggest looking on your local council site for any business forums or advice centres they might hold. Most coucnils do run them and its basically allows new business owners to meet and discuss things, get help and advice etc.

For legal responsibilities as an employer/business look on the gov.uk webstie, plethora of information on there too.

Agree with BengalKnights, Starling is a great free business banking app. You could try Tide banking as well, another free banking app.
