Mykidz - we just had to put up a fence in front of our greenhouse, my inspector was happy with it. All it was is a 3' panel fence. Took my husband a morning to put up and it made her happy.

You could claim for the conservatory - but it will cause probelms if you sell your house - due to capitol gains tax (check with an accountant before you make a decision)

ok thanks for advice both about greenhse and conservatory.
Would u just ring an accountant up or will they only answer that question if u use them?

Umm - I think the answer to that is if you want an answer you can trust , then you prob need to pay for it

Why not ask on MN - there is bound to be an accountant here........

We decided not to as it was very complicated

my next-door neighbour (who is a cm) got a grant of £1000 through a scheme called 'workplace refurbishment' towards her conservatory that she was using for minding!

however, when i enquired about help with the cost of installing a downstairs loo (same scheme) i was turned down (even though i sometimes provide care for the 5 yr old brother of a mindee and he has sight problems and struggles with stairs ).

claiming an amount for pc use is a good point, since becoming a cm my computer does at least twice as much work!!

think you could claim a % for the conservery
depending on how much you use it for the mindees i'd say to claim 70% capitol
