business.
We
offer a comprehensive range of business enterprises development
services specifically to socially
and environmentally driven organisations and regeneration
projects throughout the private, public and voluntary
sectors.
Our
focus is to help businesses develop competitive strategies
and services so that they achieve sustainability. Moreover,
as a social enterprise we also understand the needs of
organisations that wish to remain loyal to their ethical
values.
Our
extensive experience in the field of regeneration includes
SRB, NDC, Neighbourhood Renewal and ERDF projects as well
as others funded by Sports England, New Opportunities
Funds etc.
While
most of our work takes
place within a regeneration context, we also support independent
businesses. Our services are suitable for organisations
at any stage of their development: from conception and
design, through start up and growth, to maturity.
Our
customers come from a wide
range of sectors. What they all have in common, however,
is that profit is not their sole concern; instead they
aim to benefit their communities, typically through trading.

provides a high quality business support service that
is reliable, professional and efficient. We find that
most of our work is through referral and that over half
of customers invite us to work with them again.

is friendly and 'hands-on' which means not only do we
devise methodologies and strategies, but we will also
help you carry them out. You will find our team approachable
and resourceful, and committed to delivering the quality
of service our customers expect.
We
encourage our customers and partners to achieve their
objectives through co-operation and partnership, as well
as through the employment of environmentally sound processes.
