While it may not be 'back by popular demand', it certainly is by popular demand that we are bringing you a new series of five online Howwows. Late last year we asked you what content you wanted us to try and bring to you. You're an odd lot because you asked for more tax and trust content *rolls eyes dramatically*.

So, not ones to disappoint, we are over the moon to be partnering with Utmost Wealth Solutions to bring you....drum roll...The Utmost Tax and Trust online Howwows. And yes, you read that right. Howwows...plural....because there will be five of them.

So, turn the phone off, grab a bowl of popcorn, and take a legitimate duvet day, because here's how the Utmost Tax and Trust online Howwows will break down into five glorious episodes:

A review of FICs to highlight considerations when choosing to create an investment company.
Airing on 5th July 2018.

Episode 1: Wrapper taxation for individuals

Considering the different facets of the mainstream wrappers and how they could be used together to create efficient income.
Airing on 5th June 2018.

Avoiding unforeseen IHT. Getting it right for clients that require more than one solution.
Airing on 12th June 2018.

Episode 3: Solving trustee trials and tribulations

Looking at the tax and admin problems that trustees face.
Airing on 19th June 2018.

Is passing the pension fund directly on to the spouse/next generation the best option for all clients?
Airing on 26th June 2018.

And the stars of the show? Well, besides you (we had to say that, didn't we?), the series will be brought to you by:

Richard Allum - MD of The Paraplanners (and manages to run a few paraplanner events, Powwows and Howwows, or something like that)

John Haley - Utmost Wealth Solutions' Technical Sales Manager with nearly 30 years in financial services. John is a Fellow of both the Personal Finance Society and the Chartered Institute for Securities & Investments, as well as being a Chartered and Certified Financial Planner.

Following the shows, Utmost will provide CPD certificates. You'll need to head over to their website and put in your contact details, so they send them to you, and they will ask if you are also OK for them to provide follow up communications but that's up to you to decide.

Your questions answered
You can submit your questions before the episodes, on the day in the chat room or even in The Big Tent. Utmost will be hanging around to answer them.

On demand viewing
Of course, the episodes will be recorded so if you prefer to watch them in your own time, all in one go, then fill your boots.

Booking your spot on the Tax and Trust sofa

To make sure you don't miss out on any episodes (it would be just awful if you missed an essential part of the plot or the season finale), register for each episode separately.

So come and join us on the Utmost Tax and Trust online Howwow sofa. There's plenty of room and we have lots of popcorn. Just click the 'save my spot' button.

Got a question? Try these answers on for size

Save your spot by clicking the button on the top right. It's free, the only thing you have to do is register an account.

On the day of the Howwow just sign back in here. But, we'll also send a reminder email ten minutes before it starts.

On the tech side of things. Viewing the Howwow on browsers such as Chrome or Firefox work best. Headphones are a good idea if you share an office, plus the ability to type so that you can ask questions via the chat feature.

Just sign-in and view a recording of the session whenever it suits you.

Yes! As many as you can throw at our panel. Plus, if you can't make the Howwow,  book a spot and add a question beforehand, the panel will then answer it during the event.

Can I suggest a Howwow topic or be on the panel?

Absolutely, the more the merrier. Drop us an email.

You bet your bottom dollar there are, and on lots of useful topics for paraplanners. Watch past and/or register for any upcoming events here.

Powwows vs Howwows - what's the difference?

Here's the Powwow lingo.  Powwows are informal gatherings designed by paraplanners for paraplanners to exchange views, learn things, fix things and share things.

Got that? But there's more. Where Powwow gatherings are on a number of topics,  Howwows are for those times when we want to focus on ONE topic in particular and, in depth.

Sometimes we meet in person,  and sometimes we just like a good chinwag online.  Enter Howwows Online.

You can find out more about Powwows or see a full list of all events here.

Actually, my question was on something else

Ooh, we like new questions. Just pop it in an email and send it on its merry way to how@paraplannerspowwow.co.uk.

One last question, what do you do with my details when I sign up?

Crikey, another good question! We’ll use your details to keep you posted on Powwow happenings. From time to time, this will include activities that our supporters are participating in that we think you’ll find interesting.  We share information at an aggregate level with our supporters every now and then.
