TESTIMONIAL

We are excited to embark on the next phase of our growth journey, which will help us tap into new, expanding markets and industrial sectors. I’d like to extend our sincere thanks to Business Northumberland – the newly established business support service from Northumberland County Council in helping us achieve our goals.

NSBS was one of the first people I contacted for support with my new business venture. (they) highlighted all of the possible opportunities and he explained the options available in a way that was easy to understand. The process was straightforward and efficient and I received invaluable guidance on preparing a strong grant application. As a result, Claire at Aspin Aesthetics was awarded a start-up grant. This has really helped my growth and planning over the next six months. Northumberland Small Business Service, especially Chris, are easy to recommend with expert advice, training and funding opportunities.

I contacted (NSBS) at Business Northumberland when looking for help with my new business start-up. (They) advised me of not only the opportunities available within his department, but also signposted me to other funding that was available. The process was quick and easy, we were given advice for putting together a successful grant application and have since been approved for two start up grants which has transformed the launch and speed of development of Laughing Sisters. I would highly recommend getting in touch with Business Northumberland - there is nothing to lose and lots to gain from advice and training to funding.
