Free help and support available for small businesses in Derbyshire
Small businesses looking to expand are being offered help and assistance through a free business health check from the D2 Business Advisory Growth Service.
Derbyshire County Council have contributed £36,000 towards the project to help small Derbyshire-based businesses to reach their full potential and a further £36,000 has also been contributed from the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF).
The free business health check will:
- look at where your business is now and where you want it to be
- identify the areas where your business could benefit from additional help and support
- identify what you need to do to achieve your goals
- help you apply for grants that are available to businesses across Derbyshire
Councillor Tony King, Cabinet Member for Economic Development and Regeneration at Derbyshire County Council, said:-
“We’re pleased to help fund projects that give small Derbyshire businesses the step-up they need to grow and develop.
“Small businesses play a vital role in boosting Derbyshire’s economy through supplying to other local, national and international companies, bringing in business to the county and employing local people.
“If you’re a small business looking to expand or have just started trading and want to progress to the next stage, don’t miss out on your business health check − it could be a great benefit to you and your company and it’s free.”
The D2 Business Advisory Growth Service is run on behalf of D2N2 − the Local Enterprise Partnership for Derby, Derbyshire, Nottingham and Nottinghamshire.
