Business Support Programme
The programme has been designed specifically to provide practical support for small businesses in Northants, Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland looking to release their potential and grow. The changes to Business Link mean that business support is now only available via the Business Link website and on the ground support for the majority of businesses is no longer available. The FSB Business Support Programme was set in place to help cover the gap caused. The programme will consist of focused, interactive workshops and a business buddy system to provide full support for businesses of all sizes, ages and sectors.
A 2nd phase of this programme will commence in May giving business throughout the region the opportunity to follow this programme on a regular basis.
The FSB will also be introducing a Start-up support package in Leicestershire and Rutland and further details will be available in the near future.

The FSB h
as set up the FSB "Voice of Small Business" Survey Panel. The Panel is made up of over 4,000 businesses and is the largest panel of its kind in the UK.
We are asking if you would take a few minutes to sign up to become a member of the Panel. It is extremely important that our FSB members' voices are heard at national level and also at local level.
In Leics. Northants & Rutland counties, we are contacted as a reliable source on how small businesses are faring and how they see the economy going forward. We need as many FSB members in our region to take part and sign up as possible. It will help us lobby effectively on local key matters - matters that affect you and influence the decision makers! But we can't do this alone - we need your help.
What do you need to do? - It's quick and easy!
All we ask of you is 10 minutes of your time, once a month, and in return we promise to use this information to keep delivering tangible lobbying successes - that's it!
