Are YOU owed money? 1million UK workers can still claim refunds worth £1,000s
Plus, we share how you can check to see if you are owed money back TAXING TIMES Are YOU owed money? 1million UK workers can still claim refunds worth £1,000s Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) NEARLY one million UK workers are missing out on refunds worth £1,000's. You could be owed money from the taxman if you overpaid on income tax or other forms of taxes. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 You can claim money you are owed if you over paid on income tax Credit: Getty - Contributor There are many reasons why you may have overpaid on your tax, such as being put on the wrong tax code when you started a new job or starting to receive a pension at work. Under current time limits, you can reclaim money back for any tax you over paid going back four years. HMRC has issued a call out on social media encouraging working Brits to check if they are missing out on a backdated payment. A statement on X read: "Don't miss out on your tax refund! Almost 1 million people haven't claimed the money they're owed." Typically at the end of each tax year, which runs from 6 April to 5 April the following year, HMRC works out whether you paid the right amount of tax. The taxman usually issues rebates automatically, but if you think you have been overcharged you can put in a claim yourself. There are steps you can take if you think you have overpaid. You can check what income tax you paid for the last year by visiting the website and logging in with your Government Gateway ID. You can then use the government's income tax estimation tool to see how much income tax you should have paid for a previous tax year. This tool can be found here, How to Qualify for Free or Discounted Council Tax! When you know how much tax you paid you can then work out if you are owed a refund. You can also check and claim a refund via the HMRC app, which is free to download. The tool also lets you file a Self Assessment tax return if you are self employed. HMRC issues letters to four million It comes as HMRC said that it is sending out around four million P800 letters to inform people that they are owed an income tax refund. Workers who pay PAYE tax and pensioners who may have overpaid their tax on pension income are among those who could receive the letters. If you receive a letter it will include a link to the Government's website where you can complete an online form to nominate the bank account you want your rebate paid into. It should then be around five working days until you receive your payment. In some cases if you don't complete the form HMRC will send a cheque, your letter will state if this is the case. If you've received a letter but don't have access to a computer or phone with internet, you can contact HMRC via phone or post. USING HMRC APP The HMRC allows users to get information about tax, National Insurance and benefits. You can use it to check your: tax code National Insurance number income and benefits employment and income history from the previous 5 years Unique Taxpayer Reference (UTR) for Self Assessment Self Assessment tax and how much you owe Child Benefit State Pension forecast gaps in National Insurance contributions You can also use it to: get an estimate of the tax you need to pay make a Self Assessment payment make a Simple Assessment payment set a reminder to make a Self Assessment payment access your Help to Save account use our tax calculator to work out your take home pay after Income Tax and National Insurance deductions track forms and letters you have sent to us claim a refund if you have paid too much tax ask HMRC's digital assistant for help and information update your name update your address save your National Insurance number to your digital wallet check for gaps in your National Insurance contributions and the benefits of paying them check if you can make a payment for gaps in your National Insurance contributions choose to be contacted by HMRC electronically, instead of by letter How to access the app Open the app and enter your Government Gateway user ID and password to sign in for the first time.

Urgent warning to parents taking children to farms this summer as 200 fall sick and 18 rushed to hospital
There were 17 outbreaks of nasty parasitic bug linked to farms in England and Wales in 2024 BUG BEAR Urgent warning to parents taking children to farms this summer as 200 fall sick and 18 rushed to hospital Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) PARENTS planning summer trips to farms have been warned to keep their children safe, after hundreds fell ill with a parasitic infection following visits to petting farms last year. Over 200 people got sick and 18 were rushed to hospital in spring 2024 in a large outbreak of the bug cryptosporidium, linked to a farm in Wales. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 5 Health officials have issued a warning about summer trips to lamb petting farms Credit: Getty 5 It follows outbreaks of the bug cryptosporidium linked to petting farms Credit: Getty Those sickened - many of whom were children under the age of ten - visited the Welsh farm for lamb-feeding events, where visitors were encouraged to hold and cuddle the animals. Cryptosporidium is a microscopic and highly infectious parasite that can cause an infection called cryptosporidiosis. It spreads easily between animals and humans and strikes victims with vomiting and diarrhoea, sometimes for several weeks. There were 17 outbreaks of cryptosporidiosis linked to farms in England and Wales in 2024. And earlier this year, more than 80 people fell ill due to infections linked to a petting farm in Vale of Glamorgan. Now, families visiting petting farms over the summer break have been urged not to hug lambs in order to avoid further outbreaks. Public Health Wales (PHW) advised farmers in the country not to allow visitors close contact with lambs - this includes holding, cuddling or kissing the animals. The advice came after PHW conducted a report on the 2024 outbreak that saw 200 sickened. It found people who had closer levels of contact with lambs at petting events were much more likely to become ill with cryptosporidium than those who didn't touch the animals. "Discussions with the farm owner revealed that lambs often urinated or defecated on visitors when they were held for prolonged periods, and those exposed to faeces on clothes or the skin were significantly more likely to develop illness, suggesting a need to limit lamb contact at these events," report authors added. Farm Outbreak: Cryptosporidium Strikes The health watchdog wrote: 'This report recommends that lamb or calf feeding is supervised and done with the animals separated from the visitors by their pens. "This means that people can still bottle feed the animals but can have greater protection against illness." The report also recommended that farmers provide better hand-washing facilities and visible signs to encourage visitors to use them. Meanwhile, visitors were advised to wash their clothing as soon as possible after visiting petting farms. 5 Dr Christopher Williams, consultant epidemiologist for Public Health Wales and one of the authors of the report, said bugs like cryptosporidium as this one "are spread very easily" in environments such as lamb feeding events. He told farmers: 'Having adequate handwashing facilities on-site is absolutely essential – sinks need to have both hot and cold running water, along with a good supply of liquid soap and paper towels. "Signage around the event should ensure that people are encouraged to wash their own and their children's hands properly on a regular basis throughout their visit. 'We would also like to see farmers make their visitors aware of the risks involved in having close contact with young animals, so that people are educated before they attend. 'I would encourage any farmers who are considering opening their farms for these events to consider all the risks, and plan ahead early to enable them to make all the necessary provisions possible in order to keep their visitors safe from infection.' The report found that the spring 2024 cryptosporidium outbreak was making it one of the largest reported outbreaks of the bug in Wales, and "the largest to date associated with a farm setting in England and Wales". Symptoms of cryptosporidiosis and how to avoid it Symptoms of the bug include: Profuse watery diarrhoea Stomach pains Nausea Vomiting Low-grade fever Loss of appetite Dehydration Weight loss Symptoms usually last for about two weeks but can be longer, especially in people with weak immune systems. During the illness, you might think that you are getting better and have shaken off the infection but then it returns a couple of days later before you fully recover. Take the following steps to protect yourself from the illness. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water: Before preparing and eating food After handling raw food After going to the toilet or changing a baby's nappy After working with, feeding, grooming or playing with pets and other animals Help young children to wash their hands properly and always wash and/or peel fruits and vegetables before eating them. Do not drink untreated water. You should pay special attention to hygiene during farm visits, washing hands after any contact with animals, and eating only in designated areas. How do I treat the illness? There is no specific treatment for cryptosporidiosis. Most people with a healthy immune system will recover within one month. It's important to drink plenty of fluids as diarrhoea or vomiting can lead to dehydration and you can lose important sugars and minerals from your body. Cryptosporidiosis is highly infectious, so you need to be very clean around your home for at least 48 hours after your symptoms stop, so don't return to work or school until that time has passed, don't share towels or bedding and don't prepare food for others. You are infectious to other people while you are ill and have symptoms. The report authors confirmed that the lambs used for petting events were the source of the outbreak and the odds of visitor becoming unwell increased with each successive week the event was open. Children under the age of 10 were the most likely to become unwell. "This may, in part, be explained by children often having poorer hand hygiene, being more likely to engage in behaviours that facilitate transmission - such as nail-biting or thumb-sucking - and being less likely to thoroughly wash their hands without appropriate supervision," the report authors said. Cryptosporidium symptoms usually start two to 10 days after infection and can last for around two weeks once they appear. Sometimes the illness may seem to improve as symptoms ease, but they can return before full recovery. Very young children and people with weakened immune systems are more likely to get severely ill. Eight-year-old Alba Dobbinson was one of the youngest to fall ill this spring in the cryptosporidium outbreak linked to Marlborough Grange Farm in the Vale of Glamorgan. She was hit with nausea and diarrhoea after feeding lambs at the farm with her mum, Vici, on April 17. 5 Alba Dobbinson was one of the youngest who tested positive for the diarrhoea bug this spring after visiting a petting farm 5 Several were diagnosed with the bug after spending the day at Cowbridge Farm Shop at Marlborough Grange Farm in the Vale of Glamorgan Photos show the little girl cuddling the animals and close contact with infected livestock is one of the main ways the bug spreads. Vici said: 'We were stunned because we had only been around other families and couldn't pinpoint where Alba had caught it. 'It's not like a 48-hour bug, it can potentially go on for up to a month." She added: "She can't even go to school, spend time with her friends or enjoy the weather.' Meanwhile, Gareth Carpenter said he had never seen his son Michael so unwell after he was hospitalised, suspected of catching the parasite at the farm. "He's had chicken pox, he's had flu, he has had viruses, he had many, many, many things as you can imagine as kids do when they mix in with other children, but I've never, ever seen him that ill before," he told WalesOnline. "We had to put him back in nappies, just literally leaking. It was horrendous, stomach pains and cramps."

Full list of 33 River Island shops set to SHUT as chain at risk of collapsing within just weeks
Drastic measure is floated to keep the brand alive SHOPPING MAUL Full list of 33 River Island shops set to SHUT as chain at risk of collapsing within just weeks Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THE full list of River Island stores at risk of closure has been revealed – and it includes sites in major cities. Shops in Oxford, Edinburgh, Brighton and Leeds are facing the axe to prevent the iconic brand from collapsing. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 River Island is fighting a battle for survival as customers move online to shop Credit: Getty The iconic fashion chain could reportedly run out of money in August if plans to shut the 33 stores and cut rents on a further 71 are not given the green light. The retailer has already revealed which 33 branches will shutter and has confirmed they will close in January. This does note affect which is continuing to trade. River Island is also looking to write off a series of debts, including those to landlords, to help keep the brand afloat. A formal restructuring plan written up by the chain's advisers, PwC, states that the chain will not be able to "continue trading" and would be "subject to administration or other insolvency proceedings" if plans are not approved. A spokesperson said: "River Island circulated its proposals for a Restructuring Plan to creditors on June 20th. "In combination with the company's ongoing Transformation Strategy, the Plan is a proactive measure to place the company on a firm footing. "We have been having positive conversations with key stakeholders and are confident that we will achieve approval of the Plan in the next few weeks." Major card chain with 163 shops launches closing down sales ahead of shutting its doors for good It comes amid a challenging time for the brand, as a rise in ultra-cheap fast fashion and low consumer spending has hit retail businesses hard. In a statement, issued last month, Ben Lewis, chief executive officer, said: "River Island is a much-loved retailer, with a decades-long history on the British high street. "However, the well-documented migration of shoppers from the high street to online has left the business with a large portfolio of stores that is no longer aligned to our customers' needs. "The sharp rise in the cost of doing business over the last few years has only added to the financial burden." Worsening financial position Accounts for River Island Clothing Co for the year ending December 30, 2023, showed the firm made a £33.2 million pre-tax loss. Then the turnover during the following 12 months fell by more than 19% to £578.1 million. The retailer's most recent accounts on Companies House also warned of worsening financial and operational risks. They said: "The key business risks for the group are the pressures of a highly competitive and changing retail environment combined with increased economic uncertainty. "A number of geopolitical events have resulted in continuing supply chain disruption as well as energy, labour and food price increases, driving inflation and interest rates higher and resulting in weaker disposable income and lower consumer confidence." In recent months, a number of stores have closed including in Corby, Banbury and Chesterfield.
