Accountancy firm Brookson has launched Brookson Connect software, developed alongside IT firms Insight UK, TVision Technology and Mando Group.

The software gives freelancers an up-to-date snapshot of their income, tax and overall financial position.

Users are advised on a daily basis how much money they can safely withdraw from the business when future tax deducations are taken into account.

Martin Hesketh, managing director of Brookson, says: “We passionately believe the flexible workforce has a huge part to play in the recovery of the UK’s economy and with our new offering we are providing a platform on which they can start to work more efficiently.
