THINKING OF STARTING YOUR OWN BUSINESS?

For a wide variety of reasons, more and more people are starting their own business and a growing proportion of those in Test Valley live in the rural area, a trend which is forecast to continue. Whether it’s web site design, gardening or skilled trades or complementary therapy, hundreds of people have been supported to "go it alone" over the last five years.

The Council provides a package of support for people considering starting their own business which includes free advice from a local enterprise agency, small business premises on easy in-easy out terms and the £500 Business Incentive Grant, now entering its sixth year.

If you would like to know more, please contact David Gleave, Economic Development Officer, on 01264 368309, dgleave@testvalley.gov.uk or see how we can help at http://www.testvalley.gov.uk/Default.aspx?page=401
