The £300 Tax Break Most Therapist Directors Don't Know About

Are you leaving money on the table as a limited company director?

I can’t believe that i’m only just learning about this but if you run your therapy practice through a limited company, there’s a little-known HMRC rule that lets you give yourself up to £300 worth of tax-free treats each year – completely legally. No tax, no National Insurance, just small perks that make running your business a bit more rewarding.

Think: coffee shop vouchers for your favourite café, that bookshop gift card you’ve been eyeing, or a nice meal out after a particularly draining client week.

But (and it’s a big but) the rules are specific, and if you get them wrong, what should be tax-free becomes a taxable benefit that HMRC will come knocking for.

In this guide, I’ll walk you through:

• The exact HMRC rules (the £50 and £300 limits)

• What counts as a trivial benefit and what doesn’t

• Which vouchers are tax-free, vs. which ones will land you in hot water

• A practical system for therapists to use this throughout the year

This is one of those small wins that most therapists don’t know about – but once you do, it’s an easy way to reward yourself without increasing your tax bill.
