Atlas Bridging Limited, a financial intermediation firm registered in Brighton, passed a resolution for creditors' voluntary liquidation on 18 May 2026, ending a trading life that began in January 2023.
A creditors' voluntary liquidation is an insolvent winding-up resolved by the company's members at the directors' request, without a court order. It is the most common route into corporate insolvency in the UK.
The liquidators
Tom D'Arcy (IP number 10852) and Jonathan James Beard (IP number 9552), both of BTG Begbies Traynor (Central) LLP, were appointed joint liquidators by the members and creditors on the same date. The appointment was made out of the firm's office at 26 Stroudley Road, Brighton, East Sussex. D'Arcy and Beard are licensed insolvency practitioners, each identified by an IP number issued by their recognised professional body.

Common questions
Are you owed money by Atlas Bridging Limited?
In a creditors' voluntary liquidation you are an unsecured creditor unless you hold a registered charge or retention of title. The liquidators will write to known creditors with a proof-of-debt form. A statement of affairs prepared by the directors and the chair of the creditors' decision procedure should be available on request. Read more about proof of debt and where you sit in the creditor hierarchy.
Did you work at Atlas Bridging Limited?
In a CVL, employees are typically dismissed at or shortly after the liquidator's appointment. Wages owed up to a statutory cap, holiday pay, notice pay and redundancy may be claimable from the Redundancy Payments Service. The liquidators will normally provide RP1 case-reference numbers to the affected staff. See gov.uk: your rights if your employer is insolvent.
Do you hold a deposit, gift card or undelivered order from Atlas Bridging Limited?
Customers with paid-but-undelivered orders, gift cards or deposits rank as unsecured creditors in the liquidation. Where you paid by credit card and the amount was over £100, Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 may let you claim from the card issuer for breach of contract or misrepresentation by the supplier; the rules apply per item, not per transaction, and the card must be a regulated credit card. Debit-card payments may be recoverable via chargeback.
Are you a director of a company connected to Atlas Bridging Limited?
Section 216 of the Insolvency Act 1986 applies the moment the company enters liquidation. If you intend to be involved in another company using the same or a similar name within five years, you must rely on one of the three statutory exceptions and file the relevant notice. Acting in breach is a criminal offence and exposes you to personal liability for the successor's debts.
