December 2020 Newsletter
Message from the Directors
In what can only be described as a unique and challenging year, most of you will happily wave goodbye to 2020.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their ongoing loyalty and support. It has been truly humbling to work with our
clients as they navigate their way towards the “new normal” (whatever that is) and it really has illustrated why our role is certainly more
than just preparing annual accounts and tax returns. We continue to see constant change within our industry and we have just updated our
strategic plan for the coming five years, which we're excited to share with you early next year. One thing will not change – our purpose is
to ensure each and every one of our clients and team members are successful.
We would also like to take this opportunity to publicly thank our wonderful team. They have certainly gone above and beyond the call of duty
this year to make sure our business survived - for that we are truly grateful.
Please make sure you take the opportunity to take stock over the holiday period and recharge as we build in to 2021. Have a safe and happy
Christmas!

In 2020 the PKF team are continuing the tradition of supporting local families in need. Instead of spending money on client Christmas cards and gifts, the firm and staff have chosen to supply gifts to Otago families through Presbyterian Support Otago, Anglican Family Care and the Dunedin Women's Refuge.
The PKF Bredin McCormack Rewcastle team wish you, your family and colleagues a safe and happy holiday. We’re looking forward to working with you towards a successful 2021 and thank you for your continued support and business - we've certainly appreciated it in 2020!
Our office will be closed from 12.00pm Tuesday 22

but we'll be back rested and ready to go 8.30am Wednesday
13 January 2021.
