Film and R&D Tax Relief
Helping UK Creatives and Production Teams Claim What They Deserve
Bringing a film to life takes imagination, hard work, and serious investment. But when it comes to claiming Film Tax Relief, most creatives find the process confusing, time-consuming, and full of HMRC jargon.
At Creative and Numbers, we specialise in Film Tax Relief Services for UK production companies, filmmakers, studios, and creative professionals. We’ll help you navigate HMRC’s film relief system, from eligibility checks to final submission, making sure you claim every pound you’re entitled to.
You focus on directing, producing, or editing, we’ll handle the numbers behind the camera.

Nick Jay
Director
I have over a decade of experience in film directing, acting, and producing, I'm thrilled to say I launched my first company in 2024 called 76 Lucky Street, alongside my two talented partners. Our debut script is a horror feature film, backed by distribution and production partners in London and Los Angeles. I'm grateful for the guidance and support of Creative & Numbers, who've been instrumental in my journey. They have gone above and beyond advising me over the years. I'm excited to further develop our partnership with C&N and continue to bring innovative and original stories to life on screen
