Workshops help businesses off the ground
Dudley’s budding entrepreneurs are being invited to get on board with a series of events next year to help them start their own business.
The two-day workshops are being held in Dudley borough in the coming months to help boost the local economy.
Up to 16 participants can take part in each free event, which are being funded by grants to Dudley Borough Council from the UK Government’s UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
The workshops are being held on ‘CEDRIC the Bus’ on the Halesowen college campus on January 7 and 8 and March 4 and 5.Bridgnorth-based business consultancy Good2Great is working with the council to deliver the package of support for small businesses to get them up and running with their ideas.
“This is a great opportunity for people to develop their business ideas and receive a range of help and support from ourselves and partner agencies,” said Eddie Allan of Good2Great.
“We will be running the workshops on the college bus next year and the same course can also be accessed online via live modular courses delivered three times a week.
“Once completed, people can access up to three one-to-one support sessions with our experienced business advisors, all of whom have a range of expertise and experience.
“There are only a limited number of spaces, so I would urge people to get in touch as soon as possible.”
Anyone interested in joining the business start-up workshops, which run from 9.30am until 4.30pm, can contact Tamsin Preece on 01746 330730 or start@good-2- great.co.uk
