Terms

General Guidance, Not Advice

Everything on this site is general information about tax for self-employed people working in fitness in the United Kingdom. It is not advice on your own affairs, and reading it does not create a professional relationship. Your position depends on your own figures and circumstances.

Nothing on this site determines your employment status. Whether a trainer engaged by a gym is self-employed turns on the facts of that arrangement, and we will work through the tests with you rather than assert an answer.

Advisory and compliance work is carried out by Tidy Money Ltd, regulated by the ACCA. We do not advise on investments, insurance or anything else requiring FCA authorisation, and nothing here is a recommendation of any insurance policy or provider.

Figures and Dates

Rates, thresholds and deadlines are taken from HMRC guidance on gov.uk and are correct as at the review date shown on each page. Tax figures change most years and some change mid-year: the simplified mileage rate rose from 45p to 55p in June 2026 with retrospective effect. Check the linked HMRC source before relying on any figure here.

Who Does the Work

Accountancy services described on this site are provided by Tidy Money Ltd. Any engagement is subject to a separate written engagement letter and to anti-money-laundering identity checks. Nothing on this website forms an engagement on its own.

Links to Other Sites

We link to GOV.UK, HMRC and legislation.gov.uk so you can read the source. We are not responsible for the content of any external site.
