Free financial advice is to be offered at a racecourse.

Small and medium-sized business enterprises are being invited to the open day at Brighton Racecourse.

Run by Revenue and Customs, topics discussed will include tax and VAT, the construction industry scheme, motor dealing and starting a limited company.

Events manager Ann Reynolds said: "By bringing our activities together at the Business Advice Open Day we are providing a one-stop shop to local businesses. There will be help on legal obligations, trading with the European Union and an opportunity to learn about recent developments in areas such as online services for income tax and VAT."

More than a dozen other organisations will be offering advice at the racecourse on Tuesday, June 12, from 9am to 4pm.
